Kennebec Behavioral Health (KBH) has provided high-quality community-based prevention, education and treatment with regard to mental illness, substance abuse and co-occurring disorders for over 55 years. SERVICE LOCATION(S) Kennebec Behavioral Health offers clinic-based services in Waterville, Augusta, Winthrop and Skowhegan as well as vocational rehabilitation programs – "Clubhouses" located in Waterville, Augusta and Lewiston. A total of 22 programs, including community-based services, are provided throughout mid-Maine and are offered to clients from all areas of the state of Maine. Kennebec Behavioral Health 2018 GOALS One of Kennebec Behavioral Health's most successful programs is vocational rehabilitation, better known as "Clubhouse." ere are four Clubhouses in Maine, three of which are operated by KBH – High Hopes Clubhouse in Waterville (founded in 1997); Capitol Clubhouse in Augusta (2002); and Looking Ahead Clubhouse in Lewiston (2012). All three Clubhouses are celebrating a benchmark anniversary in 2017. e goal of Clubhouse, which is based on the International Clubhouse model of psychiatric rehabilitation, is "to improve the quality of life for members who experi- ence mental illness by providing employment, education, and social opportunities." At each Clubhouse, members work side by side with staff to oversee the daily opera- tions of the Clubhouse. is includes providing tours, event planning, budget- ing, transportation services, food service and building maintenance. An in-house prevocational program (literacy skills, driver education) provides opportunities for members to strengthen their vocational, social and emotional skills. rough the Clubhouse Transitional Employment program, members have the opportunity to work at a paid part-time job and can stay on that job for six to nine months to gain experience and skills in a real work environment. Each of KBH's Clubhouses has received three-year accreditations from Clubhouse International. e accreditation process is conducted by members of the Clubhouse International Faculty for Clubhouse Development which is made up of veteran members and staff from Accredited Clubhouses around the world. ere are 330 Clubhouses in 34 countries across the globe. With over 20 years of experience successfully operating Clubhouses, Kennebec Behavioral Health is now embarking on the next phase of expan- sion and seeking to establish a new Clubhouse in the Brunswick/Topsham area.
