This grant from the National Institute of Mental Health aims to support research projects focused on implementing practical strategies to significantly decrease the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) among individuals experiencing first episode psychosis (FEP) in the United States. By emphasizing the importance of early identification, rapid referral, and engagement in Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC), the grant seeks to address delays in treatment initiation and improve clinical and functional outcomes for those with psychotic disorders. Applications should propose innovative approaches to shorten DUP and align with the World Health Organization’s recommendation of reducing DUP to 3 months or less.

| Description: | Approximately 100,000 adolescents and young adults in the United States experience a first episode of psychosis (FEP) every year. The early phase of psychotic illness is widely viewed as a critical opportunity for indicated prevention, and a chance to alter the downward trajectory and poor outcomes associated with schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders. Compared to traditional treatment approaches, programs that integrate pharmacologic, psychological, and rehabilitation interventions for FEP, i.e., team-based Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC), have been found to produce a range of positive clinical and functional outcomes. However, the timing of treatment is critical; short and long-term outcomes are better when individuals begin treatment close to the onset of psychosis. Unfortunately, numerous studies find a substantial delay between the onset of psychotic symptoms and the initiation of FEP care; in the U.S. treatment is typically delayed between one and three years. Early identification of FEP, rapid referral to evidence-based services, and effective engagement in CSC are essential to shortening the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) and pre-empting the functional deterioration common in psychotic disorders. The World Health Organization advocates reducing DUP to 3 months or less. Accordingly, this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) seeks research project grant applications that test practical, reproducible strategies for substantially reducing DUP among persons with FEP by eliminating bottlenecks or closing gaps in the pathway to CSC services. |
