What is Thunderbird Clubhouse?
Thunderbird Clubhouse was founded in l991 to help in the recovery process of adults living with mental illness. Participants are called members because the focus is on the person’s strengths not their illness. The Clubhouse is a place where people who have mental illness can come and rebuild their lives through pre-vocational training, paid employment, housing opportunities and great social/recreational experiences. Membership is for life so members have all the time they need to secure their new life in the community.
Thunderbird Clubhouse is a community of men and women on a path to recovery from mental illness. We are a place of hope and caring; a place to come and be part of something larger than ourselves. We value relationships and the strength we gain from one another.
Thunderbird Clubhouse members are guaranteed...
- A place to come
- A right to meaningful work
- A right to meaningful relationships
- A right to a place to return
