Welcome
At Boston University’s Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, our work is guided by the most basic of rehabilitation values: that first and foremost, persons with psychiatric disabilities have the same goals and dreams as any other person.
This value is reflected in the work we do; the innovative research to develop new knowledge and interventions that positively impact the lives of people in recovery. Training and dissemination is done in partnership, to help programs and providers to develop, implement and deliver recovery-oriented services.
In services we provide comprehensive services and programs that teach people critical skills and assist them to gather essential supports that promote thriving and success in their valued roles as students, workers, and citizens.
