The Ontario Working Group on Early Intervention in Psychosis is made up of individuals and organizations that share the goal of developing an effective treatment and support system for the early stages of psychosis.

The Working Group, established in 1999, is focussed on bringing the benefits of early treatment to all citizens of Ontario who experience the onset of psychosis and on providing support to their families.

There has been ongoing collaboration and consultation with the MOHLTC on Early Intervention over the past four years. The Mental Health Program Policy unit of the ministry has now completed a policy framework for early intervention and a number of members of the policy task force that advised on the process are part of the OWG.
