On Demand Grand Rounds: Early Psychosis Treatment: How Did We Get Here & Where Are We Going?
This presentation was last reviewed on June 5, 2024, and was live in-person on July 24, 2019, from 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM ET.
The views and opinions expressed by this presenter in this lecture are their own, and do not represent the views of Sheppard Pratt.
By the mid-1970s, community mental health centers were criticized for their failure to prevent the severe disability associated with chronic mental illnesses. The rise of the community mental health movement in the middle of the twentieth century reflected the belief that early intervention would reduce chronic disability for many mental illnesses (Grob & Goldman, 2006). The Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenic Episode (RAISE) research project from the NIMH provided an early intervention model that is relevant for the US mental health system. This presentation will discuss RAISE projects and information from an implementation study and aspects of integrated coordinated specialty care.
Target Audience
This activity is intended for psychologists, social workers, counselors and other mental health professionals.
