Clubhouse

The Clubhouse is structured around a work ordered day with “work” units that are designed to mirror the expectations and relationships of the workplace. If a member chooses to return to paid employment or seek volunteer work, the Clubhouse staff will offer guidance and support to assist in achieving these goals. Community social activities will also be planned based on member interests and recommendations.

Gateway Clubhouse relies in part on the generous donations of those committed to supporting people who struggle each day to overcome the devastating effects of their brain injuries.

The Clubhouse actively involves members in every aspect of day to day operations. Working together with highly-trained staff, members plan and implement Clubhouse activities as well as maintain the facility. With a focus on ability rather than disability, members are recognized for their contributions no matter how small or large. Survivors of brain injury are considered members –not clients or patients. They receive necessary support while still maintaining ownership over Clubhouse activities. This experience can improve their quality of life, skills, and overall independence. Gateway Clubhouse offers the following benefits to those with a brain injury and their families:

• Purposeful activities that build self- esteem, confidence, and social skills
• An emotionally and socially supportive environment where members work at their own pace towards personalized goals
• Guidance from specially trained staff

Gateway Clubhouse provides individuals living with the effects of a brain injury the opportunity to participate in satisfying, purposeful activities in a supportive community environment. 

'The Clubhouse helps me with my goal of getting back to work, building friendships and working on being more appropriate. It helps me with building my career goals after my injury.'  -Chris
