Co-Designing a Digital Platform to Support a Culturally Adapted Family Intervention (CaFI:Digital) for Psychosis Among People of Sub-Saharan African and Caribbean Descent: Agile Co-Design Approach
A digital platform to support delivery of CaFI for psychosis was rapidly developed through a series of co-design activities. To our knowledge, this is the first bespoke digital therapy platform that has been co-designed with and for people of sub-Saharan African and Caribbean descent who experience psychosis. This is important given the disproportionate rates of diagnosis and lack of access to psychological therapies experienced by this population.
