 History

Workabilities Clubhouse opened a clubhouse model of programming on 7/6/2009.  The program is modeled off of the Fountain House clubhouse in New York.  The purpose of the clubhouse is to help members move towards their vocational goals.  There is a strong sense of ownership by the members in that they feel accepted at the clubhouse each day, have a sense of being actively needed, and recognize their contribution is critical to the clubhouse functioning.  Membership is voluntary and for a lifetime.
