Ways to Become Part of the COE Community
Please email us if you are a potential community partner to set up a meeting to discuss ways we might collaborate or be of assistance.
You can sign up for our mailing list to receive our quarterly electronic newsletter highlighting recent research in the field and by the COE.
The Center of Excellence (COE) for Psychosocial and Systemic Research at Massachusetts General Hospital is funded by the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health (DMH). This reflects the current increased awareness in our field of the importance of psychosocial treatment approaches to prevention, illness management and recovery in mental health.
The COE works collaboratively with community entities to develop and execute quality improvement and research projects that are driven by community priorities. Our staff includes individuals with lived experience of mental health challenges, care providers, researchers, postdoctoral psychology fellows, research coordinators and administrative staff members.
Our core projects focus on topics identified as priorities by individuals with lived experience who serve as community researchers in all phases of these consumer-based, participatory research projects. The COE is working to develop equitable collaborations with other community entities to help build quality improvement and research capacity in priority areas.
