THE POSITION: CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

REPORTS TO: BOARD OF DIRECTORS

LOCATION: CONCORD, CALIFORNIA

THE ORGANIZATION

Vision and Mission Statement
Every person with mental illness lives a meaningful, productive life.

Overview
Mental Health Connections (“MHC”) is based in Contra Costa County and operates three programs:
Connections House, Peer Connections Centers, and Connections Transit Support. All programs are designed
for people over 18 years of age and are provided free of charge. MHC is accredited by Clubhouse International.

❖ Connections House (AKA “the Clubhouse”), formerly Putnam Clubhouse, is a welcoming community
where adults recovering from mental illness come to rebuild their lives. Participants -- called members, not
patients or clients or consumers -- share ownership and responsibility for the success of the organization.
The underlying premise is that each member can sufficiently recover from the effects of mental illness to
lead a personally satisfying and productive life. Recovery is achieved at Connections House through work
and work-mediated relationships, which are proven to be restorative and provide a firm foundation for
growth, self-respect, and individual achievement.

Members work in a unique partnership with their peers and core staff, building on personal strengths
instead of focusing on illness. Connections House provides an accepting place to spend the day, valuable
work to perform within the organization, opportunities to socialize, health and wellness activities,
expressive arts programming, and access to education and paid employment within the wider community.
Connections House was the first program in Northern California to be accredited by Clubhouse
International. The Clubhouse International Model is included in the United States Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services Administration's National Registry of Evidence Based Practices and Programs.
Extensive research indicates Connections House members and the communities in which they live benefit
from higher employment, reduced hospitalization and incarceration, improved well-being, and reduced
cost of services compared to other programs.

❖ Peer Connections Centers (“PCCs”) support those with mental health challenges, who are early in their
recovery. The PCCs offer groups to support wellness, one on one support, links to resources, outings to
museums, parks and other points of interest. Peer Connections Center sites are in two sites in Contra Costa
County: Antioch and San Pablo. PCCs offer classes, activities, outings and social engagement to help
members build on their interests and find a community. Classes focus on understanding the journey
of recovery from mental illness and learning to live life more fully. Each day at a PCC is organized
around a calendar of activities that include physical activities. Peer Connection Centers help to
connect the members to all the community resources that are available to support their mental
health recovery.

❖ Connections Transit Support helps members of both Connections House and Peer Connections Centers get back and forth from home, school, or work and MHC sites.

The Organization

Founded in 2015, California Clubhouse is an accredited social and vocational rehabilitation program for those whose lives have been impacted by mental illness. Based in San Carlos, California Clubhouse is part of a larger, thriving, network of more than 300 global Clubhouses in 30+ countries creating hope and opportunity for their members. A recipient of the prestigious Conrad N. Hilton Humanitarian Prize, the Clubhouse network is “a proven model to help those suffering from mental illness reclaim their lives and realize their potential through work and the support of a caring community.” The only local program of its kind, the California Clubhouse is a self-powered community made up of like-minded individuals who empower, and advocate for each other to create a unique sense of belonging and support. The innovative Clubhouse model restores agency to members who participate in consensus-based decision making and assists members in reaching the goals they have for their career and education. The program has proven benefits for both members and employers. The results are extraordinary: Clubhouse members have longer job tenure, higher earnings, and double the employment rate as compared to individuals living with mental illness who are not clubhouse members.

California Clubhouse, in partnership with San Mateo County, is entering an exciting new era – with a move to larger premises – and is poised to expand the number of members served, its programs, and services under new leadership. California Clubhouse seeks a dynamic, compassionate, and ambitious Executive Director (ED) who is committed to supporting the lives of adults recovering from mental health challenges. Overseeing a current team of six, the ED leads all operations of California Clubhouse in collaboration with members, staff, and other key stakeholders.

Club members describe Petoskey Club as a place to find purpose, friendship, and support in becoming more healthy, active, and aware.

This fun and vibrant community is currently seeking a new director.
