Provider Trainings & Webinars

We host provider focused webinars on various topics related to best practices for working with young people and families experiencing early psychosis.

The STEP Learning Collaborative is committed to workforce development of early psychosis care in Connecticut through the dissemination of best practices, early psychosis care model, and community outreach. We aim to support providers across the system of care including those directly working with a young person or family member impacted by early psychosis and those looking to refer someone to services. ​

Trainings are intended for front-line clinicians of various disciplines working to support individuals and families impacted by early psychosis. Also open to interested community members.
