Site Summary: Project Return, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with mental illness through educational, vocational, social, and supportive housing services so that they may live productive and fulfilling lives in our community. Project Return programs are guided by a blend of recovery-based principles from psychosocial rehabilitation, the clubhouse model, occupational therapy, and other best practices and evidence-based models.

Our consumer-centered programs and services enhance and support the process of recovery. Program focus is based on a strengths model of mental health, working with the whole member to improve the member's quality of life, rather than treatment for symptoms of mental illness. Project Return members, in partnership with staff, form goals for skill development in the areas of educational, vocational, and interpersonal growth that serve to maximize opportunities for successful community living. Members proceed with goal development at their own pace and may continue in the program with varying intensity for an indefinite period of time.
