Summary
This study tests a 10-week program called 'Grow to Recovery' for people with mental illness. The program is co-led by a peer (someone who also has a mental illness) and a professional. Researchers want to see if it helps participants feel more hopeful and capable. 138 people are taking part in Taiwan.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that peer-led programs help people with mental illness feel more hopeful and in control of their recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in Taiwan, so results may not apply elsewhere. The program is behavioral, so effects may be modest and hard to measure.
