Lakeside Clubhouse seeks Clubhouse Generalist

The Lakeside Clubhouse - located in Holland, MI is a psychosocial rehabilitation program that provides services to people with mental illness. The Clubhouse programs are accredited by Clubhouse International and operate under its evidence-based proven standards.
