Ulsan City Launches Mental Rehabilitation Project... First Public Forum Featuring 'Participant Research' Special Lecture

Ulsan City has organized its first public forum to set the direction and revitalize its mental rehabilitation projects.

On the 12th at 1:30 PM, Ulsan City announced that it will hold the "2023 Ulsan Metropolitan City 1st Mental Rehabilitation Public Forum" at the Ulsan Museum, attended by about 100 people including users and families of the Mental Health Welfare Center and mental rehabilitation facilities, as well as practitioners.

This event is held under the theme "Research on Korean Persons with Mental Disabilities and the Direction of Ulsan City's Mental Rehabilitation Projects" to promote the activation of mental rehabilitation projects and improve awareness. The event will include expert lectures, research presentations, and comprehensive discussions.

Research involving persons with mental disabilities is a program-type activity where individuals with conditions such as schizophrenia, mood regulation issues, and experiences of social withdrawal identify the meaning and patterns of their own condition, mood, and daily life difficulties, find coping methods suitable for themselves, and apply them in daily life. The Cheongju Mental Health Center was the first to start this in Korea.

An official from Ulsan City said, "Through the mental rehabilitation public forum, we hope to promote Ulsan's mental health projects and related organizations, and provide an opportunity to build consensus and improve awareness about mental illness treatment, recovery, and rehabilitation among practitioners, users, and their families."
