Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recovery-oriented services are currently the mainstream in the field of mental health around the world. Peer services are an alternative service option promoted by recovery advocates. Western countries have invested abundant resources in promoting peer services and providing training for peer support workers. However, peer services in Taiwan have just started. More resources need to be added to make mental health services catch up with the world trend so that people with mental illness in Taiwan can have more choices. Hence, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Grow to Recovery program-Short Version co-led by a peer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A total of 120 people with mental illness will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group.
