Independence Center is a unique evidence-based program built on the International Clubhouse model of psychosocial rehabilitation. The Clubhouse is an innovative, non-traditional approach to recovery that builds self-esteem through relationships in a working community for adults with mental illness. Participants are known as members, as opposed to patients or clients. A Clubhouse is a place to find acceptance, belonging and purpose - antidotes to isolation. Fighting societal stigma, we strive to empower individuals to reach their potential by offering employment, education, wellness, and social opportunities.

When you come up the ramp or steps and through the doors of Independence Center, you might be surprised by what you see. Housed inside, you will find a resale shop, financial center, fully equipped restaurant-style kitchen with a large dining area, wellness center, and a host of other amenities. Independence Center is bright, open, and welcoming. It is bustling with activity, and you can't tell members from staff because they work side by side. That is all by design. If you have ever been inside a Clubhouse partnership-model program, you know you've come home.

First and foremost, you believe recovery for people with mental illness is possible and you believe in the power of community.
  • You respect and embrace diversity and easily build rapport with people from different backgrounds
  • You are an energetic, positive, team-oriented individual with an ability to motivate others
  • You have highly developed organizational, written, and verbal communication skills
  • You are a self-starter and creative thinker who works well in upbeat and dynamic environments
  • You have a sense of humor and like to have fun
  • You have a willingness to transport people in your own car and sometimes in our large vehicles
