Abstract
This paper presents findings regarding the relationship between the social networks of MHC participants and one important outcome, treatment adherence. Poor treatment adherence is associated with poor recovery among people with serious mental illnesses (Velligan et al., 2009); thus, understanding the factors that are associated with treatment adherence within the MHC context is an important contribution to the literature and one that is currently lacking. Structured and semi-structured interviews are drawn upon to do the following: (1) Describe the social networks of MHC participants; (2) Quantitatively estimate the associations between network factors and treatment adherence; and (3) Explore what factors impact mental health recovery and contribute to success within MHC programs from the perspective of MHC participants and key informants.
