What is Journey House?

Journey House Clubhouse (JH) is a community based psycho-social rehabilitation program where adults with persistent mental illness can rebuild their self-respect and confidence. We provide a supportive and accepting community in which members can gain a sense of belonging and accomplishment through education, productive work, and meaningful relationships.

Journey House Clubhouse is not a treatment facility. It is a unique supportive and collaborative setting where those who participate in our programs are "members" rather than clients. JH is one of over 300 Clubhouse programs world-wide that is certified by Clubhouse International.

Journey House Clubhouse is a place for members to integrate themselves into the community and assist them in achieving their life's goals.

Journey House is a place where you are always Welcome, Wanted, and Needed!

What is your role at Journey House?

You should have exceptional interpersonal skills and the ability to develop and maintain meaningful relationships with people from various walks of life and diverse backgrounds.

You need to be a strong team member (willing to provide coverage in all units, as needed), self-starter, creative thinker, and can engage many individuals at one time.

I take each day and use it as an example of what not to do and what to do. Journey House has helped me out more than anything else has. At Journey House, once you are a member you are always a member, and I take that to my heart.

Thank you to all staff members for letting me be myself and explore the possibilities of life."

"People help me be productive even when I am reluctant to work. They may not think so but them being who they are and with some effort to improve-helps me to form good associations."

"Journey House helps me so much because if I stay home, I get depressed. With Journey House I have friends and I get to work, plus it is nice to have a place to celebrate holidays."

"Before Journey House I was isolating, but now I have a reason to get out of the house. I have friends, I am productive; I was able to get a job. The weekend activities are a lot of fun and get me out on the weekends."

"Journey House got me more involved in specific activities…
