Title of Collaborative Activity: |
3rd National Conference on Advancing Early Psychosis Care in the United States: Addressing Inequities - Race, Culture, and COVID |
Description of Collaborative Activity: |
With the rapid expansion of evidence-based early psychosis care in the U.S., largely the result of the successful NIMH-funded Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenia Episode (RAISE) initiative, additional clinician training on early psychosis is needed. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), in collaboration with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), sponsored a meeting entitled, "Advancing Early Psychosis Care in the United States: Addressing Inequities - Race, Culture, and COVID," on November 12-13, 2020. More than 3,000 clinicians and other professionals working in the early psychosis care field attended the virtual event. NIMH staff served on the planning committee and as presenters. |
