About This Venue
Grand Avenue Club is a non-profit mental health organization located in downtown Milwaukee that creates a welcoming, community-focused environment for adults experiencing mental illness.
Grand Avenue Club operates as a clubhouse model that emphasizes meaningful engagement and social connection rather than clinical treatment. Members have access to a variety of programs including paid employment opportunities, prevocational training, supported education, and recreational activities designed to build skills and foster community. The organization also runs the Water St. Boutique and offers holiday programming and enrichment activities throughout the year.
Located on East Michigan Street in Milwaukee's downtown area, Grand Avenue Club serves as a vital resource for adults seeking peer support, employment assistance, and social connection in a non-stigmatizing environment. The clubhouse model prioritizes member agency and contribution, creating a space where individuals can work toward their goals while building meaningful relationships with others in the community.
