Frontline Peer is a social enterprise tackling occupational stress injuries among Canada’s safety-critical operators. Founded by a former correctional practitioner with both lived experience and academic expertise, our mission is to address systemic failures and connect human factors, safety science, and the value of tacit knowledge that turns failure into institutional learning.
We transform frontline experience into actionable insight through multimedia storytelling, advisory services, and knowledge conversion and mobilization. Our work reduces administrative harm and strengthens reliability-organizing in public and private safety sectors, helping people live and work better.
We’re a social venture that puts people before profit — but we’re structured as a for-profit Canadian corporation so revenue streams are designed intentionally to sustain programming, services, and support frontline communities. Our model aligns impact with generativity to drive lasting change across public safety systems in Canada, and beyond.

We treat recognition as both a human right and a strategy for resilience, leadership, and retention.
Frontline stories are not just anecdotes—they are data. We use them to shape policy, training, and innovation.
We center those often excluded—people impacted by injury, stress, or structural barriers—not just those who stayed or succeeded.
Our tools are modular, flexible, and scalable—built to meet the realities of frontline work and institutional complexity.
