This report describes the iterative development and implementation of a recovery-oriented psychosocial rehabilitation Toolkit as part of a larger project designed to support the community-based rehabilitation and recovery of people with serious mental illness living in low resource settings. This joint Canadian-Kenyan community based psychosocial project (see www.createkenya.com) comprises a work integration social enterprise model paired with a low-cost locally developed psychosocial rehabilitation Toolkit in Machakos, Kenya. Early results demonstrate the value of the Toolkit for the local community to advance skills, develop resources and ultimately support social inclusion.
