Begins
Empowering individuals and fostering communities on a transformative journey towards mental health and well-being, together.
Three Core Areas of form
Direct Mental Health Supports
We were founded with a mission to help people with mental illness integrate into society by being in community with others and working on life goals, such as employment. Twenty years into our work, we continue to expand ways of connecting people to communities, others in recovery, and workforce and support opportunities
Supportive Communities
Peer Support Programs
Mental Health Workforce Development
We do not have enough mental health professionals to meet the needs of our community. However, we have many resilient individuals with lived experience in recovery who are motivated to help others. Our workforce development efforts focus on transforming lived recovery experiences into high-impact jobs within our communities.
Impact Scaling and Sustainability Services
Our direct mental health services save lives, but we know we can’t fully meet the needs of our community alone. That’s why we share every lesson we’ve learned with others to help them provide similar services. The challenges are bigger than any one agency, so we focus on empowering others to create an impact more quickly.
Purpose and a Sense of Belonging:
Universal needs we all have for Connection, Hope, and Happiness.
While a life full of meaning comes naturally to some, this doesn’t happen for everyone. Oftentimes, the resources, relationships, and experience necessary to create life-affirming opportunities are hard to come by or just missing.
We’re here to work these problems, to help people everywhere form communities of healing and well-being.
Our Story
In the basement of Travis Park United Methodist Church, the very first clubhouse in San Antonio was started way back in 2003. Our early years forged a path for social justice on behalf of people who had been left behind by society and a deep belief in the power of community in the healing process.
Today, the San Antonio Clubhouse is the flagship program within form communities, a nonprofit that provides a myriad of solutions to communities near and far.
Our impact in 2022 includes:

Transforming Mental Health Across Texas
At Form Communities, we are dedicated to making a significant impact on mental health across the diverse communities of Texas. We understand that mental health is a complex and multifaceted issue, with each community having its unique set of challenges and needs. By acknowledging and addressing these differences, we work to fit the puzzle pieces together and create a comprehensive mental health support system for everyone.
Our initiatives are focused on providing targeted resources, outreach programs, and support services to various communities throughout the state. From urban areas to rural towns, we collaborate with local organizations, healthcare providers, and individuals to identify and address the specific mental health concerns affecting each community.
