Established in 1959, Thresholds provides healthcare, housing, and hope for thousands of persons with mental illness in Illinois each year.  Through research, employment, advocacy, care, and housing, Thresholds assists and inspires people with mental illness to reclaim their lives.

Thresholds is the oldest and largest provider of recovery services for persons with mental illnesses in Illinois.  They reject the notion that anyone is a “lost cause,” utilizing evidence-based practices and a wide range of supports to treat the whole person, rather than just the disease.

Thresholds offers 25 innovative programs at more than 70 locations throughout Chicago, the adjacent suburbs, and McHenry and Kankakee Counties.  Services include assertive outreach, case management, housing, employment, education, psychiatry, primary care, substance abuse treatment, and pioneering research at the Thresholds-Dartmouth Research and Evaluation Center.  Last year, Thresholds served 6,100 adults and youth, with 75% of services delivered out it the community, representing more than 400,000 hours of care.
