Our Mission and Vision
The mission of Threshold is to improve the quality of life for adults with serious mental illness living in Durham County. We are committed to facilitating personal well-being and community involvement through meaningful work and relationships. We put these commitments into practice by providing an environment of opportunities and supports that address the vocational, educational, social, recreational and residential needs of those we serve.
Threshold strives to be an exemplary model for the community while promoting awareness of and appreciation for those among us living with mental illness in Durham County. Threshold affirms the dignity and worth of all members by fostering an environment of acceptance, supportive relationships and access to resources. It provides the foundation from which new experiences and attainment of one’s full potential can occur.
