Abstract
Summary The Community Re-Entry Program is a brief videotape-based skills training module designed to: (1) make the patient an active collaborator with the mental health system in fashioning an individualized aftercare plan; and (2) equip the patient with the skills and knowledge needed to implement the plan and engage in longer-term, community treatments. Results from two studies on the impact of the Community Re-Entry Program point to its efficacy in linking patients with aftercare shortly after discharge, but more research is needed to determine the durability of aftercare engagement.
