Destiny House

Destiny House is our longest running community program. We think it was meant to be.

Part of our mission is to make mental health care accessible to everyone in our community. Destiny House is our longest-running program – one that has helped hundreds of Triad-area adults on their journey. 

Destiny House is a day program for adults 18+ with severe mental illness. Admission requires a professional referral––a process we’re happy to facilitate for you. Participants spend up to 5 days per week and 5 hours per day in a safe and structured environment, with a variety of psychological, vocational, and educational options for improving mental health and well-being. Lunch and assistance with transportation are provided each day. 

A choice of payment options.

The cost of Destiny House participation may be covered by Medicaid, private insurance, or by fees assessed on a sliding scale. We also serve individuals with no insurance or other financial resources. In this case, an intake counselor will work with you to make a need-based assessment.

Client's Testimonial

Destiny House has helped me so much! I was sad and wouldn’t talk to anybody. But after being around others like me, I wasn’t ashamed anymore. I started helping out and joining in activities–I knew it was the place for me. I love Destiny House! The staff, the people around me–they’re like a family to me.” 

– Julie S., age 26
