Objective: The current study analyzes the quantitative and qualitative performance of the self-reliant living housing demonstration project in Seoul, which was conducted from August 2018 to August 2019, to fully understand the experiences and necessity of the self-reliant living housing and services for mentally-disabled people. In addition, based on such empirical grounds, it sought to contribute to establishing a suitable direction in providing quality housing support services for Seoul-type self-reliant living housing and supportive housing.
Methods: For a quantitative study, the details of the self-reliance support services provided to the occupants were investigated and analyzed based on administrative data, and a satisfaction survey was conducted for all occupants on the self-reliant living housing demonstration project and self-reliance support services. For a qualitative study, a total of 15 occupants and others that are related to the self-reliant living housing demonstration project were surveyed on such matters as their experience in participating in the project, any changes that occurred to the occupants after moving in, and the direction of the future housing services.
Results: As a result, most of the occupants who participated in the self-reliant living housing demonstration project in Seoul for the mentally-disabled people successfully managed to live independently via the selfreliance support service. It was confirmed that the experiences of the occupants were more positive than before in all aspects of their lives, such as the living environment, health, social relations, and financial management. Of a total of 5 areas, such as housing, service, positive change, community integration, and direction, 21 main concepts were extracted through FGI. It presents an issue on the stable and long-term residential environment, common space for occupants, the differentiation of support services for self-reliance according to individuals, the necessity of establishing directions such as the appropriate job placement of peer supporters and the improvement of mental illness awareness.
Conclusion: The study allows us to have an insight in the outcome of the demonstration project for self-reliant living housing in Seoul for the mentally-disabled people and in the direction of future housing services. By establishing a model for a supportive housing model that combines housing and services, the demonstration project laid the foundation in a local community for those with mental disorders who have the will and desire for self-reliance. Moreover, the study not only indicates the importance of self-determination for those who are directly involved but also establishes a new job model for peer supporters. Based on such outcomes, it is necessary to expand the supply for self-reliant living housing and supportive housing, develop support services for self-reliant living, which is centered on the needs of mentally-disabled people, and establish a support system for the Seoul housing conversion service.
