🛑This course is only approved for Continuing Education Units (CEU) credit and does not meet the requirements towards initial certification education courses.
Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) is an integrated approach in which multi-component services are provided by clinicians with training and experience in working with young adults with first-episode psychosis and their families. This collaborative approach respects the autonomy and expertise of young people as part of the treatment process and allows young people and their families to feel better, gain hope for the future, and move towards recovery. CSC can support interventions to address substance misuse and substance use disorders that are provided alongside services for first-episode psychosis.
