Mental health problems such as schizophrenia are a problem in society which is currently still an issue in various countries in the world and Indonesia. Schizophrenia is a serious mental health disorder. Schizophrenics are often encountered with difficulties in cognitive and social functioning, self-care deficits, high unemployment, and social exclusion. This research was conducted at the Posyandu Merajut Asa Mojo, Kediri Regency, East Java. This type of research is pre-experimental which will be conducted on 40 people with mental disorders who are active in Posyandu Merajut Asa without using a control group. The sampling technique used in this study was total sampling. This research was conducted by filling out questionnaires to respondents to determine coping and psychological resistance pre and post after the intervention. The analysis used was a paired t-test There was an increase in coping scores and psychological resilience after the intervention, although there were still a few and many had fixed scores. The level of significance of the relationship with the paired t-test gave a result of = 0.026 for coping and 0.017 for resistance. The interpretation of the paired t-test was that there was a difference between before and after treatment because the p-value was <0.05. Vocational Rehabilitation is an activity that has a positive impact on the development of ODGJ (people with mental disorders). There is a need for further studies on the impact of vocational rehabilitation with a longer time/duration, to see a significant effect (reduced relapse rate, independence, and productivity).
