Abstract: Purpose: Meaningful connections, encompassing relationships providing emotional support, understanding, acceptance, and a sense of belonging, are vital for social inclusion and well-being of Individuals with serious mental illness (SMI). The mixed methods review critically explored multifaceted approaches supporting people with SMI to foster meaningful (non-intimate) social relationships or connections. Methods: Searches of eight electronic databases returned 4882 records. Duplicate removal, title abstract, then full-text, screening and hand searching resulted in 23 records for inclusion. Studies were integrated using the CIVIC Framework emphasising the importance of Closeness, Identity, Valued relationships, Involvement, feeling Cared for and accepted. Results: The review identified emotional and physical challenges, societal stigma, and other environmental factors to hinder making meaningful connections. Studies highlighted the necessity for interventions being adaptable, personalised, and encompassing of structured activities, peer and professional supports, and technology-assisted platforms. Conclusion: The complexity of social interactions for those with SMI call for comprehensive, holistic strategies to nurture social relationships within their communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
