Abstract:

The presentation will focus on research of two arts-based programs for the rehabilitation of people with mental health conditions (MHCs) in the community. One program is a nationwide integrated arts-based groups program of Amitim, which aims to promote personal recovery and reduce self-stigma in individuals with MHCs, while also reducing public stigma in non-clinical community members. The second program is the Garage, a pre-academic program for young adults with artistic abilities and MHCs, design to promote their integration into arts-related education and work. The presentation includes illustrating video segments. Both programs are supported by the Israel National Insurance.
