Our History
The Key Clubhouse of South Florida organization was founded in 2008 by a grassroots group of family members and a young consumer. The group opened the doors of The Key Clubhouse in July 2010 in downtown Miami to its first 10 members.
In 2013, the Clubhouse moved to the Dr. Barbara Carey-Shuler supportive housing complex, where it is now located.
Our mission is to afford people whose lives have been disrupted by mental illness the opportunity to recover meaningful and productive lives through reintegration into the workplace and the community. The goal is a high quality of life for all members, ongoing improvement, and the ultimate elimination of stigma associated with mental illness.
