The Realities of Psychosis: Lived and Clinical Perspectives

We are excited to be hosting this virtual event on May 24th, 2022, in recognition of Global Schizophrenia and Psychosis Day at 11:30AM -1:00PM.

Our panel discussion will include a mix of lived and clinical perspectives, highlighting the realities of schizophrenia and psychosis, pathways of recovery, and strategies for supporting a loved one.
