Examining access to mental health services for social work-experienced young people

Part of the Child & Adolescent Mental Health Seminar Series

Many children and young people with social work involvement (CYPwSW) experience mental health difficulties. Yet, little is known about factors affecting their access to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). This seminar will present findings from the “CAMHS Referrals and Outcomes for Adolescents and Children with Social Workers” (COACHES) study. It will cover:
•    Potential inequalities exposed by the electronic health records and case note analyses
•    Involvement of experts-by-experience, practitioners and policymakers throughout the study

Julia is an NIHR Doctoral Fellow at the Child Health & Development Group (CHiLD). She is a mixed-methods researcher and passionate about improving mental healthcare for children with social work involvement.
