EXPERIENCE LEXINGTON HOUSE

I’m Jesi and this is my story. I went to Lexington House and got a tour, and signed up right away, and I’ve been here everyday since. Ok…I missed 2 days. This Clubhouse has helped me with my self-stigma and my self-confidence.

Before I joined Lexington House, I was very anxious and depressed. I would leave the house, and it was very rough. I joined Lexington House in July. Since then I have talked a lot more and completed tasks, and made friends. I have also been able to go everyday. It has given me a chance to keep  exploring what life has for me.

Becoming a member at Lexington House this past year has made an impact in my life. It has helped bring me out of my shell. I would normally shut down all the time. This place has taught me to be open with people. It has also been a place I’ve been able to use skills that I have used in past jobs. It allows me to work in different areas without feeling obligated, which helps me to stay grounded. Also, we’ve been given             opportunities to be part of a place that makes a difference in the community here in Elkhart.
