Programs and Services

Program list and description

  

The Clubhouse:

Our flagship program, the Clubhouse, offers Day Rehabilitation, Vocational Rehabilitation, transportation (over 13,000 rides per year), meals (lunch, five days per week) Transitional and Supportive Employment, and education for people working to reclaim their lives from mental illness. Cirrus House uses meaningful, real work as a catalyst for rehabilitation to help people whose lives have been drastically interrupted by a major mental illness.

The internationally recognized Clubhouse Model sees participants as members or co-equals in every aspect of development. They are not seen as “clients” or “consumers” but valued persons with important strengths, skills, and talents to contribute to their own success and the success of others. The Clubhouse philosophy (a.k.a. mental health psychosocial rehabilitation) is a university researched, evidence-based practice that is widely recognized for its long term success in helping people live active productive lives. Clubhouse Model is on the National Registry of Evidence-Based Practices and Programs of the U.S. Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).


Outpatient Therapy Services: Cirrus House has expanded the therapy department and is proudly working with Region 1 Behavioral Health Authority to offer a more comprehensive continuity of care to prospective consumers. We currently have 6 licensed therapists  which offer both mental health and substance use therapy and are available for appointments. We also offer Level I outpatient services for probation for both adults and juveniles. Our outpatient services currently includes mental health evaluations, substance use evaluations, co-occurring evaluations, mental health therapy, and substance use therapy. Cirrus House therapists strive to develop and implement services based on the needs of the individual(s) being served congruent with the personal goals of the client related to psychological, sociological, and independent functioning. Our therapy team is versed in a variety of treatment modalities including strength-based and client centered approaches, MI, CBT, DBT, SFBT, Schema, and 12 step approaches. Moreover, each therapist offers individualized educational approaches within treatment including wellness, recovery, and strengths discovery.

Adult Community Support: Community Support is a rehabilitative and support service for individuals with a serious and persistent mental illness and/or those in substance use recovery. Community Support Workers provide direct rehabilitation and support services to people in the community supporting them to maintain stable community living, prevent worsening of mental illness symptoms and prevent admission to higher levels of care.


Employment Programs are designed to provide rehabilitation services and supports to members engaged in community-based competitive employment. We provide assistance with all aspects of employment development by supporting members in the recovery process so their employment goals can be successfully obtained. The Clubhouse offers vocational rehabilitation, transitional employment and supported employment. Additionally, Cirrus House is currently working with Nebraska Vocational Rehabilitation Services to ensure your continued success with securing and maintaining employment. 


Youth Program:

The Youth Transition Services (YTS) is very similar to our adult Community Support program. Our youth transition support workers are certified in the Transition to Independence Process (TIP) model. Participants learn independent living skills in weekly outreach activities, sponsored by Cirrus House. Transition age youth may be planning to transition out of foster care or their parents’ home or they may already be living on their own but need extra help to maintain their successful independence. The program is designed to promote and enhance independence skills, provide an atmosphere for peer support and provide opportunities for community service. The community service activities give transition age youth opportunities to develop leadership skills and altruism.

Adult Community Based Programs:

In general, our community based services support individuals working to overcome obstacles caused by mental health issues, homelessness, past trauma, or personal crisis. We also provide transitional supports/services for those experiencing major life changes such as a youth transitioning out of foster care, a veteran re-entering civilian life, or a person re-integrating into the community after hospitalization, homelessness, domestic abuse, incarceration, substance abuse recovery, or other life changing events.


PATH (Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness): PATH services are for people with serious mental illness, including those with co-occurring substance use disorders, who are experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless. Services include community-based outreach, mental health, substance abuse, case management and other support services, as well as a limited set of housing services.
