Are Cornerstone residents encouraged to find work or to be engaged in their community through education or volunteering?
The goal we hold for Cornerstone residents is to assist them to attain the quality of life and level of engagement in their community that best suits their individual situation. Many of the women who live in Cornerstone residents take some time to recover and heal from recent trauma or crises, and then move on to school, work or volunteer involvement in their community. Some residents who will always need some on-site support to live independently. For those women, our goal is to assist then to cope with the challenges of mental illness in a way that allows them to meet their best potential and to live in dignity in a caring and safe environment.
