London : Afiya Trust, 2011 Web publication This report highlights the emergence of BME children receiving insufficient and ineffective consideration due to their age and ethnicity. The report is the result of a policy overview and consultation with 11-25-year-olds. In relation to the coalition government’s ‘No health without mental health’ strategy, the report shows: around 20 percent of children and young people are believed to have a mental health problem, yet there is no indication how many are from a BME background; despite a breakdown of disorders being available for BME adults, none is available for BME children and young people, and has yet to be explained why; and risk factors highlighted for children and young people regarding mental health fail to include racism, racial harassment or racist bullying. http://www.afiya-trust.org/images/stories/reports/afiya_young_people_report.pdf Great Britain. Department of Health Children and young people’s emotional wellbeing and Mental Health National Support Team : the learning : ‘What good looks like’. London : DH, 2011 Web publication National Support Teams (NSTs) were established by the Department of Health from 2006 to support local areas – including Local Authorities, Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) and their partners – to tackle complex public health issues more effectively, using the best available evidence. By undertaking intensive, ‘diagnostic’ visits to local areas, spending time with key leaders (commissioners and providers) including clinicians and front-line staff, the ten NSTs provided intelligence, support and challenge to local areas to assist in their achieving better public health outcomes. The programme finished in March 2011. The ten subject specific teams (Sexual Health, Tobacco Control, Health Inequalities, Teenage Pregnancy, Childhood Obesity, Alcohol Harm Reduction, Infant Mortality, Response to Sexual Violence, Vaccination and Immunisation and Children and Young People’s Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health) were commissioned and established with a focus on improving health and reducing health inequalities. This document outlines the key elements of best practice in terms of improving outcomes locally for the emotional wellbeing of all children and young people and children and young people with a specific mental health need. http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Publicationsandstatistics/Publications/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidance/DH_ 126001 Great Britain.

Mental Health Network Early intervention in psychosis services. Briefing ; 219 (May 2011) London : NHS Confederation, 2011 Web publication The development of early intervention in psychosis (EIP) services has been informed by the experience of young people with psychosis and their families. The early phase of psychosis is now understood to be a critical period which provides a clear rationale for a specialist, intensive focus over this key time period. In treating young people with early psychosis, evidence suggests specialist EIP services are superior to generic community mental health team-based care on every outcome, including cost. There is a significant challenge to incentivise the health system (and other government departments) to maintain a long-term perspective in the current and future financial context. http://www.nhsconfed.org/Publications/Documents/early_interventionbriefing180511.pdf Brodie, Elizabeth, et al. Social Care Institute for Excellence Mental health service transitions for young people. Research briefing ; 37 (May 2011) London : SCIE, 2011 Web publication This briefing looks at recent research literature (since 2000) on the move from child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) to adults’ services for young people with psychological, emotional or behavioural problems, referred to as ‘mental health service transitions’. Young people may move to adult mental health services (AMHS) or need alternative support in young adulthood. Despite evidence of some promising and innovative practice, this is an issue of longstanding concern to young people, their families, practitioners and policy-makers, both in the UK and abroad http://www.scie.org.uk/publications/briefings/files/briefing37.pdf Associated documentation http://www.scie.org.uk/publications/briefings/briefing37/index.asp Great Britain.
