The Daily Targum – September 8, 2008
Summary: The Daily Targum reported on the opening of Laurel House in New Jersey and the fact that the Clubhouse is providing those with chronic mental illnesses a new resource to help reintegrate into the work force. “We hope to be the first of many in New Jersey,” said Annette Mayo, the president of the Laurel House Committee, “Their success rate is phenomenal [because] it doesn’t focus on the fact that these people are sick, it focuses on the fact that these people are citizens of the community who would like to have a meaningful life.”
