ICCD - International Center for
Clubhouse Development
The International Center for Clubhouse Development is a global network creating
opportunities for people living with mental illness to be respected members
of society. ICCD clubhouses are founded on the realization that recovery
from serious mental illness must involve the whole person in a vital and
culturally sensitive community. A clubhouse community offers respect, hope,
mutuality and unlimited opportunity to access the same worlds of
friendship, housing, education and employment as the rest of society. In
pursuit of this mission, the center promotes the development and strengthening
of clubhouses; oversees the creation and evolution of standards;
facilitates and assures the quality of training, consultation,
certification, research and advocacy; and provides effective communication
and dissemination of information.
