Program Goals and Essentials
Program Goals
- Improve timely access to evidence-based treatment for psychosis
- Provide comprehensive evaluation, treatment, and coordination with families and providers
- Foster hope and connection among young adults and families in recovery
- Guide young adults with psychosis toward greater resiliency and health
- Develop skills needed to improve educational, occupational, and social functioning
- Improve long-term clinical and functional outcomes for people living with psychosis
Essentials of the Program
Participation in all aspects of the program leads to best outcomes. We encourage RISE members to take advantage of all elements of RISE so they get the “full dose” of therapeutic intervention.
Making a connection with both a RISE psychiatrist and therapist are the first, essential steps to engagement in the program.
Family involvement is a key element for recovery and supporting RISE participants in treatment. Our expectation is that RISE participant’s families are involved in treatment.
All RISE members participate in both baseline and 6-month follow up assessments to track treatment progress and program engagement.
