The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has recently released the Early Serious Mental Illness Treatment Locator to help connect people experiencing the first onset of serious mental illness, including first episode psychosis, to effective care. Each program listing includes eligibility criteria, including age range and diagnoses treated, services provided, location and contact information. This information can be a lifeline to people who urgently need help.
