The Work Ordered Day

The work ordered day revolves around four distinctive units: Culinary, Home & Garden, Creative Design and Connections and Resources. Members and staff work side by side as colleagues contributing to the day to day operations of the clubhouse. The work is meaningful, member driven, and essential to the clubhouse; relying on the strengths of our members and reflecting the belief that everyone has something to contribute.

Creative Design

Creative Design

A collaborative space where ideas come to life. Members contribute to marketing materials, social media, newsletters, and creative projects that support the clubhouse’s voice and visibility in the community.

Culinary

Culinary Skills

From meal planning to preparation and hospitality, members work together to create nutritious meals that nourish both body and connection. The Culinary unit supports daily operations while building teamwork and life skills.

Home & Garden

Home & Garden

Members help maintain and enhance our physical space through organization, beautification, gardening, and facility support. This unit fosters pride, responsibility, and care for our shared clubhouse environment.

How Community 43 Advances Arizona Priorities?

Workforce Participation

The Clubhouse work-ordered day helps members develop job-ready skills, confidence, and routines that support employment readiness and long-term workforce engagement.

Housing Stability

Consistent community connection, daily structure, and recovery support help members maintain stability, navigate challenges, and sustain independent or supported housing.

Community Integration

Members are active participants, not patients , building relationships, contributing to shared work, and strengthening their role in the broader community.

They don’t just do their jobs; they meet people where they’re at, listen without judgment, and consistently offer support in ways that make you feel valued and seen. Their kindness isn’t performative- it’s woven into the culture of the entire organization

Within the first six months of being at Community 43, I stopped self-harming every two weeks. It went from every three months to six months, then to a year- the first time in a long time that I had freedom from using self-harm as a way to cope with my problems.

Community 43 is a wonderful and unique clinic. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting. The staff is very professional and they treat you like family instead of a patient.
