Abstract: Quality of life (QoL) and recovery are two widely regarded outcomes of psychiatric treatments around the world. Research highlights the potential of community involvement to enhance performance and foster progress. A survey involving 606 individuals with severe mental disorders assessed their levels of engagement, recovery, and overall satisfaction with life. The findings reveal that social involvement has a modest but statistically significant positive impact on both rehabilitation rates and general well-being. Follow-up studies further establish a correlation between recovery and life satisfaction when individuals actively participate in specific forms of engagement, with causal inferences drawn from these correlational analyses. The results suggest that emphasizing community engagement in psychological health organizations presents an opportunity to enhance rehabilitation and QoL. Research also discusses future directions, along with implications for policies and practices within the context of psychological rehabilitative initiatives.
