The goal of this pilot cluster randomized trial is to understand if adding a standardized cognitive self-management program, Thinking Skills for Work-Cognitive Self-Management Strategies (CSM) to Coordinated Specialty Care Supported Employment and Education (SEE) programs improves the work and school outcomes of young adults experiencing first episode psychosis. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does adding the CSM program to usual SEE services lead to improved work and school outcomes, such as ability to find a job or enroll in school, or ability to keep a job or stay in school?
* Does adding the CSM program to usual SEE services improve cognition and cognitive self-efficacy? Researchers will recruit six research sites and these will be randomized to either treatment as usual, where they will offer regular SEE services, or the experimental groups, where they will offer regular SEE services plus the CSM program.
Participants in both groups will be asked to complete a brief assessment at baseline, 6-months, 12-months, and 18-months. Participants in the experimental group will be asked to participate in the 12-session CSM program in addition to their regular SEE services.
