HeadsUp (headsup-pa.org), is an organization within the University of Pennsylvania,
funded by the PA Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (OMHSAS) specializing in early psychosis.

We offer free professional training, consultation, general education & connection to care for the state of Pennsylvania.

I want to take this opportunity to personally invite you, your colleagues, and any students who might be interested to join HeadsUp for one of our upcoming free live hybrid days of training focusing on
Recognizing & Responding to Early Psychosis for Community Health Providers.

These workshops will take place from 9 am-3:30 pm ET on:

These events will provide education and training on
screening/identification of early psychosis symptoms and
associated referral resources,
crisis management, and an
overview of current psychopharmacological treatments,
all while considering the impact of social determinants of health.

Our workshop brochure is attached, which provides more detailed information about the sessions – the agenda and content will be the same across all three events.

Providers are encouraged to attend in person if possible
– light refreshments and lunch will be provided to in-person attendees.

The events have a virtual attendance option as well, however, if that is more convenient.

CEs will be provided at no cost for physicians, nurses,
pharmacists, physician assistants, and psychologists,
along with counselors, social workers, family counselors,
and other professionals whose licensing board accepts these credits.
