Individuals with mental illness earn over 1 Million Dollars working in the community!
In 2009, Genesis members recorded their highest earning totals ever this year breaking the million dollar mark. In spite of the economic downturn, one hundred forty-six (146) members earned $1,146,081.48.
Employment is a guaranteed right of membership and is a core value at Genesis Club. We see meaningful work and personal career development as central to member recovery. Every day Genesis members succeed and defeat the myth that people recovering from mental illness cannot hold employment positions of significant responsibility.
