Reviews for Children and Young People's Mental Health: Early Intervention, Ongoing Support and Flexible Evidence-Based Care

""The aim of this book, on children and young people's mental health, is to help raise awareness about all the important issues affecting our next generation of young adults. Written by subject experts, it provides key information for workers who are not currently mental health specialists.. This book provides valuable guidance on how to enhance existing services.. I hope that this book will go a long way towards providing front line workers with the knowledge and skills to recognise children and young people's mental health needs."" Anne Longfield, OBE, Children's Commissioner for England
