Advocacy
Services
Members find support from knowledgeable staff who guide them through
difficult situations and encourage them to explore new opportunities. Advocacy
is the most important role our staff plays in the Options Clubhouse. Each member
chooses a staff advocate working together as a team to develop the member's rehabilitation
plan/goals. At Employment Options we call this plan "the road map to self-recovery".
The plan details measurable landmarks (steps) which the members track on a regular
basis to see where they are in their "journey" to healthier living.
The
staff advocate will advocate for the member at all meetings, assist members in
acquiring entitlements, housing, employment, education, etc.
