EPI-NC supports early psychosis treatment programs in North Carolina. We aim to inspire recovery through evidence-based treatment models, education, support, and advocacy.

 

What is Psychosis?

  • Psychosis is a set of experiences that makes it difficult to know what is real and what is not real.
  • Every year, we expect 100,000 young people to experience psychosis.
  • Psychosis often first appears during adolescence and young adulthood and can be frightening and confusing.
  • The good news is there are evidence based and effective treatments available in North Carolina.   
  • It’s important to ask for help as soon as possible. We know that earlier treatment can lead to better outcomes.
