Description of Service Fountain House is dedicated to the recovery of men and women with mental illness by providing opportunities for our members to live, work, and learn, while contributing their talents through a community of mutual support. At Fountain House members and staff work together in the running of the clubhouse. Members volunteer their time in various units. It is by working side by side that relationships between and among members and staff are developed and it is through these relationships and work that members build skills, develop a sense of purpose and re-enter the community as co-workers, neighbors, and friends.
