This article describes strategies to promote the engagement of adolescents and their families during and after the adolescent's psychotic episode. These strategies were developed following a retrospective study of the clinical records of nine consecutive cases. Key issues that lead to failure are identified and include pressure to institutionalize and poor management of secrets.

Key Words: adolescent • engagement • family • personal agency • psychosis
