Methods: One hundred and thirty-nine people with lived experience of mental illness integrated into community-based psychosocial rehabilitation structures in Portugal answered an online survey that included dimensions related to COVID-19 pandemic prevalence, routine\/lifestyle, social support, access to health care, mental health and well-being during the pandemic and confinement, and life satisfaction and postpandemic future expectations. Results: The results point to a low prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infections in this sample. High levels of resilience and mental well-being were identified in the individuals. We also found that participants were satisfied with the social support during this phase and their routine\/lifestyle. Conclusions: The study showed that the COVID-19 pandemic seems not to have had a significant negative impact on people with experience of mental illness integrated into community-based psychosocial rehabilitation structures in Portugal. However, more research in this field should be done in the future.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/covid2020015","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,15]],"date-time":"2022-02-15T22:43:22Z","timestamp":1644965002000},"page":"200-210","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on People with Lived Experience of Mental Illness Integrated into Community-Based Psychosocial Rehabilitation Structures in Portugal"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Ana","family":"Costa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"LabRP-CIR, Psychosocial Rehabilitation Laboratory, Center for Rehabilitation Research, School of Health, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, 4200-072 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Marta","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LabRP-CIR, Psychosocial Rehabilitation Laboratory, Center for Rehabilitation Research, School of Health, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, 4200-072 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4703-1712","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raquel","family":"Sim\u00f5es de Almeida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LabRP-CIR, Psychosocial Rehabilitation Laboratory, Center for Rehabilitation Research, School of Health, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, 4200-072 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Occupational Therapy Department, Santa Maria Health School, 4049-024 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6237-9357","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"F\u00e1tima","family":"Monteiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"APPsyCI\u2014Applied Pshychology Research Center, Capabilities & Inclusion, ISPA-Instituto Universit\u00e1rio, FNERDM, 1100-304 Lisboa, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8656-5023","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ant\u00f3nio","family":"Marques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LabRP-CIR, Psychosocial Rehabilitation Laboratory, Center for Rehabilitation Research, School of Health, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, 4200-072 Porto, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"271","DOI":"10.1620\/tjem.250.271","article-title":"The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic","volume":"250","author":"Baloch","year":"2020","journal-title":"Tohoku J.
