Named for Kitty Felton, FSA’s pioneering founding director, the Felton Institute for Excellence in Clinical Training provides intensive clinical training in evidence-based treatments to address the most complex mental-health issues facing America today.
Untreated and under-treated mental illness is strongly correlated with myriad other social problems, including homelessness, high medical-care costs, drug abuse and addiction, and poverty. But research demonstrates that – if met with the best and most appropriate treatments – even severe mental illness can become a manageable condition for most people, opening the way to recovery.
The Felton Institute serves as FSA’s central resource in the implementation of evidence-based practices in every element of our service delivery, to maximize client recovery. Drawing on the nation’s best teachers and clinicians, in many cases FSA classes are taught by the very professors and clinicians who developed the original treatment methods.
