The Chrysalis Foundation operates clubhouses in
Person and Chatham counties. A clubhouse is a psychiatric
rehabilitation program that provides a place where adults
with severe and persistent mental illness can live and work
independently in the community.
The Four Guaranteed Rights to Clubhouse Membership
- The right to a place to come
- The right to meaningful work
- The right to meaningful relationships
- The right to a place to return
Mental Illness typically isolates individuals from society.
The clubhouses provide a work-ordered day along with acceptance,
friendships, and repeated opportunities.
The clubhouses offer:
- A place to come six days a week
- Support through a circle of friends
- Opportunities to gain confidence through a work-ordered
day
- A range of employment opportunities
- Access to housing
- Supported education
- Evening and weekend social/recreation programs
- Community support services (case management)
- 13 affordable meals each week
The Chrysalis Foundation has also had a long relationship
with Club Nova in Carrboro, NC. Read more about Club Nova here.
