Fellowship Place

For over 63 years, Fellowship Place has provided therapeutic support & rehabilitation services for adults living with serious mental illness. On a small campus in New Haven, CT open 365 days a year, the agency focuses on education, employment, housing, and social integration. Our services complement and enhance traditional psychiatric care provided in hospital and clinic settings, which alone cannot help individuals with serious mental illness stay off the streets, get a job, maintain their housing, or go back to school. The agency touches the lives of over 800 adults annually. The majority served are living with a serious mental illness or a co-occurring mental illness and substance use disorder. Common struggles among them include poverty, inadequate housing, unemployment, and poor physical health. Half have experienced homelessness at least once in their lives. Programming is designed to help increase their stability & self-sufficiency, build on their life-skills, and help them improve their overall level of functioning.

Fellowship Place’s broad range of programs includes job training, job placement, day programs, housing, and supportive counseling. The agency believes that offering a wide array of therapeutic activities and case management in one place at flexible hours is cost effective, and the best way to make certain our client population realizes its full potential for a full and productive life in the broader community.
