Fountain House

For 75 years, Fountain House has been a beacon of hope and recovery for people living with serious mental illness.

Through our direct service clubhouse programs in New York City and Los Angeles, as well as national policy, advocacy and research initiatives, we have transformed the lives of tens of thousands of people living with serious mental illness. In the coming years, Fountain House will expand its direct services for people living with mental illness by 70% across New York City and Los Angeles. Fountain House’s innovative approach begins with the insight that community is therapy and prioritizes the leadership of people living with serious mental illness, whom we refer to as “members” to signify agency and belonging. As the inspiration for more than 300 programs worldwide, Fountain House demonstrates the power of community in improving health outcomes, reducing loneliness, and breaking cycles of isolation and institutionalization. Together, we are building a brighter future for people living with serious mental illness — one of dignity, opportunity, and recovery.
