About 100,000 people in the United States each year experience a first psychotic episode. Longer durations of untreated psychosis correlate with more severe symptoms; less likelihood of remission; and poorer vocational, academic, and social functioning.

HOPE launched in 2016 through a federal mental health block grant.
