Social Rehabilitation
Social Rehabilitation (SR) programs assist persons with mental illness with learning social skills and acquiring supports needed to live in the community.
The goal is for the person with a psychiatric disability to build skills and access the supports needed to function as actively and independently in the community as possible.
Social Rehabilitation is directed at helping persons with mental illness gain or regain practical skills needed to live and socialize in the community. Social Rehabilitation programs provide learning opportunities in areas such as daily and community living skills, healthy diet, personal hygiene, cooking, shopping, budgeting, housekeeping, and use of transportation.
