Clubhouse MemberSHIP
Mission
The Clubhouse offers a supportive community for adults living with a history of mental illness. Mental illness is complex and often misunderstood.
To be eligible for membership, you must:
- Have a history of mental illness
- Be at least 18 years of age
- Be an active participant in your own personal wellness and recovery plan
- Be willing to interact with others in a spirit of respect and integrity
- Not pose a mental, physical, or emotional threat to yourself or others at the Clubhouse
- Be able to provide your own self care while at the Clubhouse
- Refrain from alcohol/drug use while at the Clubhouse
What makes the Clubhouse special:
- You are welcomed here as a person not as a patient.
- Our focus is on relationships, skills, and your strengths, not on your illness.
- Attendance is voluntary, so you can attend as often as you’d like for as long as you’d like.
Clubhouse membership rights:
- A right to a place to belong
- A right to meaningful work
- A right to meaningful relationships
- A right to a place to return
Once you’re a member, you’re welcome as a lifelong Cowtown Clubhouse member and welcome at Clubhouses throughout the world.
