The principal program areas of Laurel House are:

The Learning Center provides the focal point for a psychosocial rehabilitation program, with an emphasis on pre employment counseling, volunteer opportunities for those not ready for employment, skill building (including how-to-learn skills) and encouragement. Participants engage in outreach to their peers who might otherwise be isolated. Opportunities are provided to learn how to become involved in social and recreational activities in the community and how to connect with others in a network of friends and supporters.

The Community Resource Center/Thrift Store is an extension of the psychosocial program, providing meaningful prevocational retail and customer service experience.

The Employment Program provides people with a range of services to help them look for, find and keep real jobs in a career of their choosing in integrated work settings, at competitive wages.

The Supported Education Program provides community-based placement assistance, financial aid, tutoring and career and educational counseling to help people enroll and succeed in college or other post secondary education

The Housing and Residential Services Program helps people locate and maintain safe, affordable, stable housing.

The Wellness Program provides direct assistance and medically supervised counseling to help people physically compromised by mental illness to improve self-care, lose weight, make healthy eating choices, quit smoking, exercise and develop healthier lifestyles.
