Community Support Center’s new club James Sandlian talks during a meeting Tuesday at the Community Support Center in Twin Falls. The center’s new club for adults with mental disabilities is open to people who aren’t Medicaid recipients, teaches life skills to mental health clients and organizers are encouraging club participants to volunteer in the community.

rion Odendhal is trying to be a pro- O ductive member of society.Every weekday, the 42-year-old Twin Falls man comes to the Commu- nity Support Center in downtown Twin Falls to run the thrift store and attend club meetings for adults with mental disabilities. In January,the Community Support Center stopped offering adult partial care,focusing instead on psychosocial rehabilitation and starting a club that takes the place of partial care.The club is one of the creative ways the center is cop- ing with the most recent Medicaid budget cuts,which took effect Jan. 1.But the staff and clients worry how they will cope with the Med- icaid reform that passed the Legis- lature last week. The center, on Twin Falls’ Main Avenue South, has a pool table, small kitchen and laundry facilities where clients can wash their clothes.
