NEW LEAF Clubhouse

Our clubhouse provides a safe and inclusive environment for those experiencing severe and persistent mental illness. New Leaf programs are member or staff directed and they are designed to enhance work skills, habits, foster independence and develop meaningful relationships.

We provide psychological rehabilitation programs in four specific domains:

• Wellness
• Employment/Volunteering
• Life Skills
• Leisure

Members participate to achieve their goals in the domains of their choice. Find out more about New Leaf's employment and volunteering opportunities by contacting the clubhouse.

• You are 19 or older

Referral process

To become a member, a referral from NWMH, a registered psychologist or case manager is required.
