What is a Clubhouse?
The ‘clubhouse model’ is a dynamic community center giving purpose to individuals who are living with a mental health diagnosis. Members of the clubhouse work as colleagues along with staff to run the multidimensional center. This co-working model provides unique opportunities for members to build confidence, gain skills, support one-another, develop relationships and feel empowerment and sense of purpose. There are a variety of opportunities for members like employment, education, wellness and more.
Why a Clubhouse?

How does it help?
Members are given the opportunity for employment within the community with the guidance of a staff member. Members are involved in the day-to-day operations of running the clubhouse; such as menu selections, food preparations, answering the phones, cleaning and maintenance of the clubhouse, selecting activities and events planning, and being a part of the workforce within a clubhouse business. Members can learn new skills, which makes them marketable to businesses in the community.
