Research studies that explore quality of life issues from the perspective of individuals living with mental illnesses, and from the perspective of their family members, are difficult to find in the literature. This study used qualitative strategies to assist policy makers in developing an appreciation of the perspectives of people with mental illnesses and family members on this very important topic. Results support the need for continued peer support and advocacy services, for a continued focus on promoting and supporting recovery for individuals living with mental illnesses; and for a service system that acknowledges and addresses the needs of family members.
