Which of these subsections of the LCM focuses on clients' ability to participate in the community?

The correct choice is indeed focused on community participation, as it addresses the specific skills and abilities that clients need to successfully engage and integrate into their community settings. Community integration skills encompass a range of competencies that enable individuals to access community resources, navigate social environments, and establish connections within their community. This includes understanding local transportation options, knowing how to participate in community events, and being able to build social networks outside of therapeutic settings.

Other subsections, while related, do not center explicitly on community inclusion. Leisure skills pertain more to individual enjoyment and personal recreation activities rather than community engagement. Social contact focuses on the ability to interact with others, and interpersonal skills are related to one-on-one interactions and communication effectiveness. While all these aspects influence overall well-being and lifestyle, community integration skills are specifically designed to measure and enhance a client’s ability to actively participate in community life.
