The current study states the self-judgment of activities by the volunteers for the mentally disabled. In this study, the author examines how the volunteers judge themselves in terms of self-actualization and mutual support. The research design is a cross-sectional survey. The sample was conveniently selected. The author used a principal component analysis and an analysis of variance (ANOVA). In the study, the principal component analysis with varimax is used in order to create the measures for the self-judgment concerning the volunteer's activities. As a result, the author found two factors in the items pools of the self-judgment of the activities by the volunteers. One is called as "mutual support between the volunteers and the mentally disabled". Another is called as "work aid for the mentally disabled". Furthermore, the more actively the volunteer participate in a community-based program for mentally disabled persons, the more strongly they think that they have the perspective of mutual support. Finally, the author states the role of the volunteers in a community-based program for mentally disabled and the recommendations the concerning the support systems for the volunteers.
