Research shows that individuals who face mental health disorders are much less likely to be employed when compared to other individuals. This excludes people with mental health disorders from performing activities of daily life that are important for their self-confidence and self-image. This also impacts their independence and plays into the stereotype of isolating individuals with mental health issues from society.
We, at Cadabams, have spent over three decades in mental healthcare, and we have seen the struggles of people who are battling mental health disorders. Through our experience, we have understood that performing activities of daily living independently and being meaningfully employed play a huge role in accelerating recovery. Combined with the regular therapeutic sessions and professional care at our rehabilitation centres, supported employment helps individuals remain engaged throughout their recovery journey.
Cadabams Neeraja is our effort to provide people who are fighting mental health issues gain meaningful employment in safe environments. The program facilitates recovery while also giving the person a sense of independence as they progress through their rehabilitative journey.
