What is Club 90?

Club 90 is a Psychosocial Rehabilitation Program for adults in Elliot Lake and the surrounding area. Through support and sharing, members and staff provide a place to belong, a warm place, where members can achieve new levels of esteem and confidence in an atmosphere of stability and challenge. Everyone has something to offer.

The Clubhouse
Club 90 uses the clubhouse model to run its activities. The club is organized into the following units:

CAFÉ: Service from the cafe is available at nominal cost to members.
CLERICAL: Members participate in general office operations and publish newsletters.
MAINTENANCE: Members maintain premises and equipment.

Members and staff are responsible for developing or updating the various skills necessary for the proper operation of the club units. These work habits and abilities will upgrade the members potential and assist in a renewal of self confidence and self reliance.

Members of Club 90 help prepare a lunch or dinner daily. For a nominal amount, members enjoy a nutricious meal prepared onsite. Check the meal schedule to see what's cooking.

Club 90 is open!

Staff will work on-site and will be available to help you.
