People with Severe Mental Illness (SMI) often face challenges such as poor living conditions, financial concerns, limited or no social network, and experiences of discrimination or self-stigma. How can they be best supported? The answer lies in close collaboration with clients, their families, and healthcare professionals from various sectors, with a focus on their needs, self-management, strengths, and vulnerabilities.
