About
At the heart of Thresholds is a culture of compassion, resilience, and unwavering support for individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges. Founded in 1959, the organization has grown into one of the oldest and largest providers of recovery services in Illinois, driven by the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to live an independent, healthy life. Thresholds rejects the notion that anyone is a lost cause, instead fostering an environment where hope is cultivated through holistic care, advocacy, and community integration. The team at Thresholds is dedicated to breaking cycles of poverty and unemployment, viewing housing and healthcare as fundamental human rights. Their approach goes beyond traditional treatment; they actively engage with members in their communities, providing home, health, and hope. This mission is supported by a diverse and passionate workforce that values innovation, evidence-based practices, and the power of human connection. By offering a wide array of services—from psychiatric rehabilitation to employment support—Thresholds empowers individuals to reclaim their lives and realize their full potential.
