Can extra support keep people with psychosis in treatment?
NCT ID NCT06071858
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding five extra services—like peer support, digital outreach, and group therapy—to standard care helps people with early psychosis stay in treatment longer. About 350 participants will either receive standard care or the enhanced program. Researchers will compare how many clinic visits each group has over one year.
