How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Clubhouse Model of Psychosocial Rehabilitation
    methodology: psychosocial_rehabilitation
    By using a community-based, work-mediated model of psychosocial rehabilitation, we produce recovery and social integration for individuals with serious mental illness because meaningful participation in shared work and mutual relationships restores identity, self-confidence, and belonging.
  • Community Integration Through Advocacy and Evidence

  • Evidence-Based Accreditation and Continuous Capacity Building
    methodology: evidence_based_accreditation
    By establishing research-based accreditation standards and delivering ongoing training and digital support, we ensure high-quality, sustainable Clubhouse programs globally because standardized, evidence-informed practices improve member outcomes and organizational resilience.
