Abstract

One of the main barriers today for the recovery of people with severe mental disorder is the social stigma they suffer. The same affects multiple facets of their lives, such as job, health, social isolation, etc. For these reasons from different institutions have been launched different programs to address this situation. In the case of the Universidad de Almería, in collaboration with the Fundación Pública Andaluza para la Integración Social de Personas con Enfermedad Mental (FAISEM) and the platform "Almería, land without stigma", a new socio-educational program called "Include yourself" has been launched, where half of the students come from clinical mental health devices and associations and the other half are university students or general public. The training covers topics related to employment, health or personal well-being. Is described the development of this program, as well as the repercussion and future challenges.
