RAISE: Hope for Schizophrenia

As a leader in the science of recovery, the Mental Health Center of Denver is participating in RAISE (Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenia Episode), a research initiative funded by the National Institute of Mental Health involving 400 people nationwide. The three-and-a-half year study includes people between the ages of 16 and 40 who have experienced their first episode of psychosis and have not been treated with anti-psychotic medication for more than six months. Denver has 17 patients enrolled in the study. Learn more here.
