Our Work
Current Situation
An estimated 44,000 people in San Mateo County struggle with serious mental illness. Because of their illness, many live challenging lives as they struggle to stay out of hospitals, jails, homeless shelters, and morgues. Far too many become outcasts – unable to sustain education, employment and relationships.
How Can Clubhouse Help?
Clubhouse is a membership-based social/vocational community where people living with persistent mental illness come to rebuild their lives. Participation is free. It’s a place to go from 9:00-5:00pm weekdays to build upon strengths and abilities and a place to socialize evenings and weekends.
Why Support Us
San Mateo County has a wide range of excellent mental health support services, which serve as a model for other counties across the state, however it has nothing like a Clubhouse. With your support California Clubhouse will continue to be an ongoing resource for people struggling with mental illness and for their families.
Our Members
