About the FOCUS Program
This initiative is funded by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and is a collaboration between The University of Washington and community mental health centers in New Hampshire, Missouri, Washington, and California.
It will implement the self-management smartphone application FOCUS in community mental health centers to evaluate strategies to integrate mHealth into real-world clinical practice.
