Clear Blue Sky, US Virgin Islands

Welcome to CLEAR BLUE SKY!

Support CBS! Your own, local, and real, mental health support team.

THANK YOU for your continued support.

Clear Blue Sky is growing!  Your generosity helps us to achieve our dreams. 

Your dontations increase the ability of Clear Blue Sky to assisting people with mental illness–allowing them to have a regular routine and an ordered day.

In 1948 the first clubhouse, Fountain House, was established in New York City.
60 years later the Clubhouse model has been replicated worldwide to form a network of psychiatric rehabilitation facilities helping thousands of individuals with mental illnesses reclaim their rightful place in society.

Clear Blue Sky is proud to be the first in the Caribbean to become a part of this growing network of over 350 Clubhouses worldwide.

Through the Work Ordered Day and increased socialization, Clubhouses break the cycle of hospitalization, medication, discharge, and hospitalization. We have noticed a decrease in hospitalization and a reduction in the duration as our Members learn to discard the fetters of Patient-hood and embrace the freedom of Membership.  As a Patient, you have no say; as a Member you have a say, you belong. And the work that you do alongside staff, is meaningful for you as part of a community.

Clear Blue Sky Clubhouse supports the thirty-six standards that define the basic tenets of the Clubhouse culture.

CLEAR BLUE SKY was founded on the Clubhouse philosophy – Members and Volunteers join to provide assistance to each other.  Those suffering from mental illness benefit from the orderly structure and nurturing environment and learn to cope with the daily stresses of life with positive and reinforcing encouragement.

We exist as an alternative to the revolving door of institutionalization and provide a place for those released from hospitalization, but perhaps not ready to be alone in an unforgiving world.  CLEAR BLUE SKY provides help in regaining social skills, job skills, and life skills so that those with Mental Illness can learn to cope with their disease and live a full life.

CLEAR BLUE SKY’s approach is based on a “work ordered day”; a place to go, something to do, and work to be done. The activities are meaningful and are an integral part of the daily activities at the club.

CLEAR BLUE SKY is always looking for good volunteers and those with ideas to improve and connect with the community we serve. We thank you for your tremendous support and encouragement as we continue to grow.
