Sumario: Supported housing services are key elements of the healthcare network that serves people with a diagnosis of severe mental illness, within the community mental health model. This model has as a central purpose to stimulate both autonomy and social participation of users. The restrictiveness present in these centers and factors associated to their prediction was assessed. A total of 21 residential services were assessed by means of the scale of restrictive practices applied to one caregiver per place. It was observed that these services have a level of restrictiveness that limits the ability to make decisions of the residents respect to their lives. This situation hinders both empowerment and participation of people in their communities.
