The Clubhouse model was founded in 1948 in New York City by a group of mentally ill individuals. Since then, the Clubhouse movement has grown to more than 400 Clubhouse communities around the world. The Clubhouse model includes 37 standards that all Clubhouses utilize in their daily work-ordered day. Please visit https://clubhouse-intl.org/ to learn more.
