NorthStar Clubhouse requests your absence at our first-ever..
🎉April Fool's Day Gala today, April 1!🎉
The non-event is imaginary…but the need is real!

Avoiding the cost of an event means all funds raised will go directly to support the mission of NorthStar. This unique ✨non-event✨ offers you:
❎ No rubber chicken dinner
❎ No dancing
❎ No small talk

✅Just the opportunity for your gift to go directly toward supporting adults living with mental illness!

Why participate?
Research consistently shows that Clubhouses are a critical pathway to purpose, community, and employment for adults living with mental illness.

Importantly, no finances or insurance are needed for Portlanders to join NorthStar Clubhouse—eliminating financial barriers and making this service a vital, equitable resource in metro Portland’s mental health system.

Thanks for "joining us" this April Fool's Day! Your non-attendance matters now more than ever.💕

Here’s what we can tell you about our upcoming surprise:
· It won’t require leaving your house
· It will directly support adults living with mental illness in our community

More details are coming in our final post on 4/1.
Keep watching this page… and maybe clear your calendar (or don’t).

Something a little unexpected is coming from NorthStar Clubhouse.

No venue.
No dress code.
No valet.

Just a heads-up that on April 1st, we’ll be inviting you to take part in something totally different—and totally meaningful.
👀 Keep an eye on this page for more details…

NorthStar Clubhouse is grateful for Clubhouse Movement Celebrating Week! Here are some testimonials from members who are excited to share what our Clubhouse means to them.

Keep Portland Accessible!

A few weeks ago, we collaborated with our auspice agency, New Narrative, to attend a TriMet open house regarding proposed bus line cuts (line 19 - a proposed cut - goes right in front of our building). We talked with some engaging TriMet city planners about our mission and concerns, and we are eagerly awaiting the final cuts announced in mid March.

We are so excited about this generous donation to the Clubhouse! Thank you, Portland Executives Association!

Publicly introducing our newest unit: Communications & Technology (CAT)!

Along with many other tasks, the CAT unit has been making (and teaching others to make) lots of helpful items with our new 3D printer! With CATs leadership, we have also transitioned to a new electronic database, Flourish, which offers better customization and accessibility organizing member attendance, reach out, and other documentation. Come on over and see the CAT unit in action!

Season's Greetings from NorthStar Clubhouse!✨

If you or someone you love has been supported by NorthStar this year and you'd like to give back, please consider making a life-changing donation at https://www.northstarclubhouse.org/support.
