TESTIMONIALS
"There can be no Triumph unless there is a trial. There can be no Testimony unless there is a test." - Michael A. Youssef
“I have bad social anxiety, but I am more willing to be social because of Journey House. Because I realize that there are a lot of other people around here that have the same issue that I do and everyone has there problems. I like Journey House… and candy and Journey House has candy.”

"It’s been a longer journey than I’d ever thought it would be. Somehow…I make it through every day, and I am thankful for being alive. I take each day and use it as an example of what not to do and what to do. Journey House has helped me out more than anything else has. At Journey House, once you are a member you are always a member, and I take that to my heart. Thank you to all staff members for letting me be myself and explore the possibilities of life."

People help me be productive even when I am reluctant to work. They may not think so but them being who they are and with some effort to improve-helps me to form good associations.

Journey House helps me so much because if I stay home I get depressed. With Journey House I have friends and I get to work, plus it is nice to have a place to celebrate holidays .

Before Journey House I was isolating, but now I have a reason to get out of the house. I have friends, I am productive; I was able to get a jobs. The weekend activities are a lot of fun and get me out on the weekends.

Journey House got me more involved in specific activities in the clubhouse and in the community. It's given me a start in focusing on the outside world and doing the things necessary to be successful.

Journey House provided me an incredible opportunity to work with many of its members and staff and gain real world experience in a mental health setting. This internship provided a great experience during my time in college. Journey House prepared me for the mental health field and how my career will fit into it.

I was struggling with my day to day life, especially because I felt I had no purpose. I learned about Journey House from a friend. I was shy at first but started coming more and more. I have made wonderful friends here and I feel like I have a purpose now. Journey House has become a family to me and I always feel at home here.
