Clubhouse counselors work in partnership with Clubhouse members to improve life skills and self-determination within the established skill building units of the Club, as well as in social and community activities.

Staff should remain flexible, be aware of the larger picture of the needs of the Clubhouse, and make themselves available should anyone need support. The generalist role is one of the most important aspects of the Clubhouse ensuring that the Clubhouse remains focused on the big picture while assisting everyone working on their Individualized Action Plan goals.
