We understand the significance of amplifying Black voices in the mental health field, which is why we are handing over the microphone to a remarkable member of our Help in the Home team. After more than 15 years in business, we have come to realize the numerous ways in which our mental health care system has failed people of color. This month, we have initiated an interview with one of our long-standing care coordinators, Caitlin Wheeler, to gain a deeper understanding of our her experiences and insights as she continues to grow in her mental health career. Check out our latest blog to learn more.

Schizophrenia & Psychosis Action Alliance and Schizophrenia Policy Action Network are holding a Congressional Briefing on Tuesday, February 10th from 12-1:30pm at CTA Innovation House in Washington, DC called, "Total Costs of Schizophrenia" to present findings from their new national analysis. If you are interested in attending it is free to join. Use this link to register: https://sczaction.org/solutions-series-2026/ -briefing

This Tuesday, February 10, S&PAA is bringing new, rigorous evidence directly to Capitol Hill to show where the true costs of schizophrenia actually fall, why those costs are escalating, and how smarter policy investments could shift billions away from crisis response and toward earlier, more effective care.

In partnership with Schizophrenia Policy Action Network (SPAN), we’re hosting an official Congressional Briefing, "Total Costs of Schizophrenia" to present findings from our new national analysis, funded and conducted by S&PAA and published in JAMA Psychiatry—including the economic and human toll carried by families, caregivers, state budgets, and public systems across housing, justice, disability, and labor.

This briefing will feature:

• Remarks from Congresswoman Andrea Salinas, Co-Chair of the Mental Health Caucus
• A presentation by the study’s lead author, Holly B. Krasa, M.S.
• A panel discussion with expert and lived experience perspectives
• Q&A focused on policy implications and next steps

Designed for policymakers, advocates, and stakeholders, the session will unpack how delayed care, fragmented systems, and untreated illness drive real-world outcomes—and why solutions must reflect the full scope of these consequences.
Our community deeply understands these costs. It’s time the world sees them clearly—and acts. Join us. Help ensure these findings translate into smarter policy and meaningful change.

Congressional Briefing: Total Societal Cost of Schizophrenia
February 10, 2026 | 12:00–1:30 PM ET
CTA Innovation House, Washington, DC
