Road to Recovery

 Experts increasingly acknowledge that work is the key factor in supporting mental wellness and warding off mental illness.

Employment provides 5 factors that promote mental well-being:

1. Time Structure
2. Social Contact and Affiliation
3. Collective Effort and Purpose
4. Social and Personal Identity
5. Regular Activity

For those who have suffered from such illnesses, meaningful employment is an essential part of the recovery process. Happily, new research tells us that people with behavioral health disorders can and do recover and can be a valuable contribution to the workplace!
