Sometimes All it takes Is Someone who Cares
ADVOCACY. PHOENIX House provides a simple solution to long-term support of people with a mental health condition - meaningful work and friends. PHOENIX Clubhouse is a mental health recovery program for adults living in Taylor, Jones and Nolen counties who live with a mental health condition.
Originally, spearheaded by the National Alliance on Mental Illness Abilene (NAMI Abilene), PHOENIX House is a clubhouse program based on the International Center for Clubhouse development (ICCD) model of psychiatric rehabilitation and is located at 802 Orange Street in Abilene, Texas in a house once owned by Abilene’s most philanthropic families with an emphasis on children, mental and physical health, Thomas and Ida Hendrick.
Often diagnosed as children or adolescents, people with a chronic mental illness can spend a lifetime in and out of emergency rooms, jail and psychiatric hospitals. Membership and participation in Clubhouse can stop the crises, the frequent calls to law enforcement and emergency responders, the rushed trips to emergency rooms and urgent psychiatric hospitalizations.
Once a psychiatric patient is stabilized, they are released and sent home. They are often isolated there, left to manage their illness, dependent on family and friends who all too often have no training or resources to provide care. PHOENIX surrounds the person with a community of peers, working side by side with professional staff. Members show up for work every day, doing volunteer tasks and contributing to the maintenance and operations of the PHOENIX House. Most participants avoid further hospitalization as long as they are engaged with Clubhouse activities.
