La CLAve is a psychoeducational program developed with the goal of increasing Spanish-speaking persons’ literacy of psychosis. This program uses a mnemonic device; La CLAve (The Clue), as well as popular cultural icons derived from music, art, and videos to describe Serious Mental Illness (SMI) symptoms, increase knowledge of psychosis, efficacy beliefs that one can identify psychosis in others, attributions to mental illness, and professional help-seeking.
