A community organization providing support and resources for individuals living with mental illness looking to actively participate in the community and its programs.

What Is A Clubhouse?

A Clubhouse is a community-based service dedicated to supporting and empowering people living with mental illness, known as Clubhouse members. Based on the Clubhouse Model of psychosocial rehabilitation, each Clubhouse offers a collaborative, restorative environment where Clubhouse members can recover by gaining access to opportunities for employment, socialization, education, skill development, housing and improved wellness.

Organized around the belief that every individual has something valuable to contribute to society, Clubhouses effectively help people build self- confidence and end the social and economic isolation so often associated with mental illness.
