The people were hanging around bus stations and on street corners, panhandling or in homeless enclaves in cities. I said, yeah. He said, a lot of those folks have mental health challenges or mental illnesses. I said, yeah.

He said, those people would benefit from clubhouses. I said, they sure would. He said, that's not my message to you, though. He said, that's not where most of us are. Most of us aren't on the street corners and highly visible. Most of us are at home in our mother's basement, drinking coffee and watching TV all day and afraid to come out. Those are the folks we have to reach.

I would encourage people to go to our website and look at Clubhouse International and see what we do. There's a directory there. Look for a clubhouse in your community. And there's opportunities for you to assure people who you know might benefit from a clubhouse. Go for a tour yourself. See what the clubhouse is all about. Clubhouses love to give tours.

Maybe volunteer and join the local board or advisory board. There are a lot of things you can do. We have different advocacy actions all year long. You can get involved with us that way.

I'd encourage you to get involved, learn about what a clubhouse can deliver. And maybe the most important thing to remember is people living without mental illness are in fact people with all the same dreams and needs and wants. and the potential to recover and rebuild a personally satisfied, engaged, involved, contributing life in the local community is there.

Clubhouses provide a reasonable accommodation for people with mental illness, which is over-the-top support and repeated opportunities to succeed. I would encourage people to get to know us a little bit better.
