Members come to the Clubhouse because they have discovered they can be truly helpful to the Clubhouse and to one another. Throughout the Clubhouse, members perform many of the same tasks they would perform in the workplace, tasks that are genuinely needed to keep the Clubhouse running.
Whether it is preparing meals in the restaurant and snack bar,
tracking Clubhouse statistics, giving tours,
teaching classes in the education or wellness centers, or any other number of tasks required at the Center.
On a daily basis, members actively partner with staff in operating the Clubhouse. The Work Ordered Day, a building block of the Clubhouse philosophy, means that each day is structured to mirror the expectations and relationships of a workplace – preparing members that much more for future employment.
