The Lotus House Makes a Difference
Our programs at The Lotus House have a profound impact on individuals and their families. By participating in our holistic and integrated program, members experience healing and recovery from serious psychiatric symptoms. This not only improves their quality of life but also promotes a safe and well-informed community. Additionally, our program contributes to the economic vitality of the area. The Clubhouse provides psychiatric services, primary healthcare, and social supports all under one roof, making it a comprehensive resource for our members. A year at The Lotus House costs less than a week in the hospital, showcasing the cost-effectiveness of our approach. Through our employment program, members achieve higher rates of employment compared to the national average for other individuals with mental illness. They also enjoy longer job tenure and higher rates of pay, leading to greater financial stability. Furthermore, members experience reduced rates of hospitalization and incarceration.
