The NAVIGATE Model: A Comprehensive Treatment Approach for Persons with First Episode Psychosis

NAVIGATE is a coordinated specialty care program developed for the National Institute of Mental Health’s RAISE Initiative for treating first episode psychosis. NAVIGATE is comprised of an interdisciplinary team using principles of recovery, resiliency, and joint decision-making to target both a reduction in the symptoms of psychosis, as well as improve numerous psychosocial, functional, and quality of life components. In this webinar, we will talk about the importance of providing high-quality, intensive treatment early on in the development of schizophrenia-spectrum disorders from individual, family, and societal standpoints. Research supporting NAVIGATE as an effective treatment will be presented, as well as in-depth descriptions of the various manualized interventions in NAVIGATE, as well as who is an appropriate referral to the three local teams providing NAVIGATE in the metro area.
