Who we are
The “Amit” clubhouse in Afula is the first clubhouse to open in Israel in 2004, since two more clubhouses were opened, one in Tiberias and the other in Jerusalem. This clubhouse is the only clubhouse in Israel with an official certification from the global clubhouse.
Clubhouse “Amit” in Afula, is a social and vibrant community for people dealing with mental crises, anyone who has a rehabilitation basket is entitled to join (and it is worthwhile). The clubhouse is not a “social club”, but a warm home for friends who come both who feel good and bad and hard, we clubhouse members support each other and encourage each other through the twists and turns of life.
Sometimes when a person experiences a mental crisis, he also experiences an internal loss of identity. The main essence of the clubhouse and its members is to help the member rediscover himself, his abilities and strengths, and help him or her to reintegrate into work and the community.
At Clubhouse there are two main units where members work.
The office unit that deals with the administrative management of the clubhouse, approvals, presentations, office work and projects.
In the culinary unit we prepare breakfast and lunch meals, cakes and coffee. As well as food for sale at special clubhouse events.
In addition to the two main units, there is extensive activity:
Finding a job outside of a clubhouse, theater group, annual fundraising fair, trips, explanations, parties, holidays and more and more.
The clubhouse population is diverse and composed of all religions and we celebrate all the holidays together.
A key and vital component is the option of free choice, members choose when to come, what to do and how to do, we believe that the person should act out of intrinsic motivation and not out of necessity.

Employment is one of the pillars of the clubhouse and very significant to the community, both to those who work in the free market and to members who support them from the clubhouse.
The employment unit is central to the clubhouse and common to all. The members who work at Clubhouse deal with all the bureaucracy associated with outside workers and form a supportive and proactive infrastructure for their members. In addition, employment preparation workshops are held, in which issues related to work skills, difficulties that may arise at the beginning of work, etc .; All my clubhouse members enjoy each other's life experience and advice and tips given with great love.
The job search process is done in partnership and also independently. Accompaniment at work is done according to the need of the member and so the relationship with the employers is according to the need and desire of the member, while along the way, we will always encourage each other to independence in the free labor market.
