BACKGROUND
People with intellectual disability often have few friends and experience social exclusion. Recognising this gap, supported social groups with the aim of inclusion and interdependence were created by a supported employment provider.
METHODS
Interviews were undertaken with 10 adults with intellectual disability exploring their lived experiences of a supported social group. Data were analysed using descriptive phenomenology.
RESULTS
Two themes emerged (i) supported engagement fosters wellbeing, and (ii) developing social belonging and connectedness. Participants not only acknowledged the support that they needed to participate, but also that the social group had changed their lives in many ways.
CONCLUSIONS
Adults with intellectual disability want to socialise, have friends and be part of their community. For this to be achieved, they recognise the need to seek some form of support. With appropriate and targeted support, adults with intellectual disability can move from social exclusion towards supported inclusion and experience richer lives.
背景
智障人士通常朋友很少，并且会经历社会排斥。为了弥补这一差距，一家支持性就业机构创建了支持性社交团体，旨在实现包容和相互依赖。
方法
对 10 名智障成年人进行了访谈，探讨他们在支持性社交团体中的生活体验。使用描述现象学对数据进行了分析。
结果
出现了两个主题（i）支持性参与促进幸福感，以及（ii）发展社会归属感和联系。参与者不仅承认他们需要支持才能参与，还承认社交团体在很多方面改变了他们的生活。
结论
智障成年人希望社交、结交朋友并成为社区的一部分。为了实现这一目标，他们认识到需要寻求某种形式的支持。通过适当和有针对性的支持，智障成年人可以从社会排斥走向支持性包容，并体验更丰富的生活。
