A few words about us
Since 1986,
when FolkTime first opened for business, we have provided
socialization services for the chronic mentally ill.
We have helped this vulnerable population battle the
everyday reality of isolation and the stigmatism that is
inherent to having a mental illness. In providing
services for over 600 adult men and women, we have placed
special emphasis on creating a caring environment that
promotes human dignity, self-worth and self-sufficiency.
Services
In a friendly and supportive atmosphere, members
focus on developing their strengths & talents, learn the
skills needed to live with the daily realities of mental
illness, and gain optimum independence in their lives.
FolkTime is a peer community of people in recovery,
supported by a small, experienced and dedicated staff and
board of directors. Volunteers and community support are an
integral part of all we do.
A concept ahead of its time, FolkTime has always believed in
the strength of the human spirit, and the need for friends
and a meaningful place in the community as a means for
recovery.
FolkTime weaves together community resources (gleaned food,
donated supplies, and volunteers) and supports members in
their own community outreach and volunteering as a means of
regaining their place in community life.
