To learn about the real people living with psychosis spectrum disorders, the crucial importance of early intervention, and hear personal stories of struggle, healing, and hope, join the University of Arizona Department of Psychiatry, Banner Health's Early Psychosis Intervention Center (EPICenter), and Coyote Task Force for an afternoon of community-focused education.

Popular culture has stigmatized people living with psychosis spectrum disorders as being unintelligent, unmotivated, and even violent. These false and harmful views stem from a lack of understanding what a person is going through when they are having symptoms such as disordered thoughts, hallucinations, and delusions.

Join us to watch special selections of PBS documentaries on psychosis by renowned filmmaker Ken Burns. Stay for a panel discussion - moderated by Gustavo Perez, PhD, EPICenter's director and lead psychologist - with two community members living with psychosis, a family member, and an EPICenter psychologist who will share their experiences during an audience Q AND A.

1 p.m. -1:30 p.m. Live music with Carlos Arzate
1:30 p.m. Introduction and screening
2 p.m.-3 p.m. Sharing lived experiences and panel discussion
