Did you know that one in four adults in the Upstate are living with mental illness?

In Greenville, Gateway takes a unique Clubhouse approach, providing a community center that serves as a hub for opportunities + activities available to all its members (yes, members — not clients or patients).

Gateway members get a full year of holistic recovery services for about the same cost as a two-week psychiatric hospital stay. Gateway also helps its members pursue GEDs, and over 45% are employed in our community.

Locals can support Gateway’s mission at this year’s Beautiful Music for Beautiful Minds event, happening Friday, Sept. 29 at The Annex at Judson Mill.
