Social Program

The social program provides fun activities for members to engage in after the work week is complete. The first two Fridays and Saturdays of the month are out-of-house activities, the last two being in-house. Transportation is provided for those attending social activities.

Coffee Hour

Every Friday at 4pm members and staff gather to listen to music, play cards and other games and to chat. We feel this is a great way to start the weekend by ending the work week with coffee hour.

Family Project Meeting

Parents who are members of the Club come together and exchange views, opinions and stories of experiences of being a parent with mental illness.

Agency-Wide Meeting

Meets every Wednesday at 2pm. This meeting is designed to discuss any Options Clubhouse concerns, up-coming events, trainings and review any Options Clubhouse policies with member and staff input.

Job Club

This group is for all Options Clubhouse members that are employed or working towards employment. We meet Tuesdays at 4pm and discuss different topics to help support one another regarding employment issues.

Transitional Employment After Hours

This is a monthly casual dinner outing for our Job Club participants to go out and have a nice evening of conversation and relationship building.

Fitness

The Options Clubhouse is equipped with exercise equipment that includes treadmills, exercise bikes, weights and a universal. Certified instructors are available to help members and staff develop individual fitness regiments. Nutrition programs like the Weight Watchers are also offered.

Funding

To support our efforts, we depend on:

• State dollars
• Foundations
