Residential and Outreach
YORK HOUSE
York House, located in west Rogers Park, is a 12-bed, supported, group living home for adults recovering from psychiatric illnesses. This residence provides a supportive, home environment in which individuals can pursue personal wellness and fulfillment of life goals. Services include counseling, skills training, case management, and support with medications and with other health issues. Research-based practices are employed to help individuals address and manage psychiatric issues, improve self-care skills, and establish personal goals. Peer support, friendships and family, and integration into the larger community are essential components of the Thresholds model. Our overarching goal is to help each person define and achieve personal recovery.
York House is a three-flat building in which each person has his or her own bedroom, with full access to all common areas including living rooms, recreation rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, laundry, cable television, internet, and telephones. The house is staffed 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, by Thresholds Community Support professionals, including a registered nurse. A group meal is prepared each evening. Staff-supported group outings and activities are available several times throughout the week. For some individuals, York House has been a place to prepare for living on their own; others have chosen to make it their home. Length of stay is determined by individual need.
There is no sanctuary of virtue like home
