Expansion
Help open new Clubhouses around the world. Each new Clubhouse we open touches +/- 500 people in need.
Our Mission and Our Work.
There simply are not enough resources today for everyone with a mental illness who needs help. It’s a crisis situation and the numbers are growing. Clubhouses are a powerful demonstration that people with mental illness can and do lead normal, productive lives.
We are a non-profit organization that helps start and grow Clubhouses globally where people with mental illness can go to get their lives back. Each Clubhouse we open touches an average of 500 people!
Our Community Speaks Out About Our Global Impact. In this video, Clubhouse International’s Board Chair Jennifer Tedesco and Executive Director Joel D. Corcoran, and a number of our Clubhouse Founders, Directors and members themselves describe Who We Are. Read more about Our Work below.
