Trauma, poverty, discrimination, and inequity all affect mental health—yet most psychosis treatment ignores these realities. The ISPS movement challenges the status quo, advocating for mental health care that addresses social determinants, prioritizes community and relationships, and offers choices, not forced interventions. We believe in a future where people diagnosed with psychosis are provided structural and social supports that promote full community participation and flourishing.

I went to my first conference needing to find other family members who were also struggling with the diagnosis, hospitalization, and medication routine. I appreciate the "trialogue" unique to ISPS where the voices of family members, folks with lived experience and clinicians are expressed in an open and supportive environment. I continue to be inspired by those within ISPS-US, learning ideas, strategies and hearing hopeful people discuss topics that affect my family and me every day.
