Do you have a favorite restaurant or business who’s community-oriented and advocates for mental health? Our Clubhouses are looking for more organizations to partner with for our Transitional Employment (TE) Program!

Vail’s TE Program connects Clubhouse Members with employment opportunities in the local area, helping them transition back into the workplace, learn valuable job skills, and gain work experience. Primarily, we're looking for roles that are routine-based, require minimal manual labor or physical strain, and allow for some sitting.

The goal of the program is to provide our Clubhouse Members with a supportive transition back into the workplace! Reach out to us if you have a role that’s a good fit!
