The Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal is sponsored by the Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, at Boston University's Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and by the US Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association (USPRA) .

The mission of the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal is to promote the development of new knowledge related to psychiatric rehabilitation and recovery of persons with serious mental illnesses. First in print in 1977, the journal publishes peer reviewed articles and reports describing innovative programs and practice in rehabilitation and recovery and is intended for those readers with a professional and personal interest in the field of psychiatric rehabilitation. The PRJ Editorial staff encourages submissions related to feasibility testing and preliminary studies such as interventions and manual development, testing of measures and preliminary testing of interventions that can meet the challenge of developing evidence-based practices in psychiatric rehabilitation. We encourage potential authors to submit articles about measurement of constructs of importance to the field of psychiatric rehabilitation and studies examining the effectiveness of services and interventions which use quasi-experimental and experimental designs.
