About Psychosocial Rehabilitation
Psychosocial Rehabilitation services utilize a comprehensive approach encompassing mind, body, and spirit to work with the whole person. The purpose of these services is to improve a person’s functioning, promote the management of illness(es), and facilitate recovery.
The goal of Psychosocial Rehabilitation is to support individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses in becoming active and productive members of their communities. This includes enabling them to manage their illnesses and their lives with as little professional intervention as possible. In partnership with staff, individuals establish goals for skills development in vocational, educational, and interpersonal growth (e.g., household management, development of social support networks) to maximize opportunities for successful community integration.
Individuals progress toward achieving their goals at their own pace and may continue in the program at varying levels of intensity for an indefinite period.
