AB  - BACKGROUND: The 'Sunshine Soul Park' is a network of social welfare institutions 
      that provides communitybased rehabilitation services for individuals with mental 
      illness. AIMS: Assess the effectiveness of the rehabilitation services provided 
      at the 'Sunshine Soul Park' on the psychotic symptoms and social functioning of 
      individuals with schizophrenia and, based on these findings, provide a 
      theoretical model of community-based rehabilitation. METHODS: Sixty individuals 
      with schizophrenia in the Huangpu District of Shanghai volunteered for the 
      rehabilitation training program provided at six 'Sunshine Soul Park' community 
      centers that involves day treatment, medication monitoring, biweekly 
      rehabilitation training, and other recreational, social, and intellectual 
      activities. A matched control group was recruited from individuals with 
      schizophrenia registered on the Huangpu District registry of the 'Severe Mental 
      Illness Prevention and Rehabilitation System'. All participants continued their 
      medication without change for the full year of follow-up. Both groups were 
      assessed at baseline, and 3, 6, and 12 months after enrollment using the Insight 
      and Treatment Attitude Questionnaire (ITAQ), Social Disability Screening Schedule 
      (SDSS), Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74), and Positive and 
      Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). RESULTS: In the intervention group the ITAQ, 
      SDSS, GQOLI-74, and PANSS scores showed statistically significant improvement 
      compared to baseline at each follow-up assessment. Moreover, the trend in 
      improvement in the interventions group is significantly faster than that in the 
      control group. CONCLUSIONS: The 'Sunshine Soul Park' rehabilitation training 
      program enhances patients' knowledge about their disorder and improves their 
      social functioning and quality of life. Further studies to assess methods for 
      up-scaling this intervention to other areas of China are warranted.
