Summary
This pilot study tested a community-based intervention for people with psychosis in Malawi, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Zimbabwe. The program includes peer support from someone who has experienced psychosis, case management, and help with daily activities like finding work or social events. Researchers measured changes in quality of life over four months to see if the approach is feasible and helpful before planning larger studies.

What this could lead to
If successful, this pilot could pave the way for larger studies that may improve quality of life and social outcomes for people with psychosis in low-resource settings.
