This study aims, first, to consider thestrengths of people with mental illness, and then to find out some essential factors that would make it easier for them to live in the community, without impairing their strengths. Several questionnaire-type surveys were carried out on university students' strengths during their activities of job-seeking. The data were analyzend by the Grounded Theory Approach and compared to the same king of data on a group of people who have mental illness but live in the community and are suported by day-care services offered by public health-care centers. The first result shows that as to the strengths of people with mental illness living in the cummunity, factors of environmental promotion are few and factors of environmental pooression tend to restrain factors of individual promotion. The recond result shows that as to the strengths of unisersity students during their activities of job-seeking, factors of individual promotion. These suggest that informal social resources (e.g. friends or peers) are very important for people with mental illness living in the communitiy.
