Program Summary:
Kate's Place is a Clubhouse program that was established to support individuals living with the effects of mental illness and co-occurring disorders. Participants are members, not clients, patients or consumers. Members work side by side in operating and accomplishing the goals of the Clubhouse. Kate's Place is a restorative environment for people with mental illness and co-occurring disorders. It focuses on wellness, personal talents, skills, and abilities, not a person's illness. Members are able to build confidence and self-esteem through meaningful work within the Clubhouse and through employment programs that allow members to become gainfully employed through Temporary Employment Program (TEP) opportunities or Supportive Employment, with as much hands-on support from Clubhouse staff as needed. In addition, a variety of social activities are planned by members and staff to encourage relationships and healthy ways to have fun outside of work hours.
