This report presents findings from the third (wave 3) in a series of follow up reports to the 2017 Mental Health of Children and Young People (MHCYP) survey, conducted in 2022. The sample includes 2,866 of the children and young people who took part in the MHCYP 2017 survey. The mental health of children and young people aged 7 to 24 years living in England in 2022 is examined, as well as their household circumstances, and their experiences of education, employment and services and of life in their families and communities. Comparisons are made with 2017, 2020 (wave 1) and 2021 (wave 2), where possible, to monitor changes over time.

Increase the number of eligible children receiving mental health treatment from 87,500 in 2014 to 91,000 by 2018.

This is the second (wave 2) in a series of follow up reports to the Mental Health and Young People Survey (MHCYP) 2017, exploring the mental health of children and young people in February/March 2021, during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and changes since 2017. Experiences of family life, education, and services during the COVID-19 pandemic are also examined. The sample for the Mental Health Survey for Children and Young People, 2021 (MHCYP 2021), wave 2 follow up was based on 3,667 children and young people who took part in the MHCYP 2017 survey, with both surveys also drawing on information collected from parents. Cross-sectional analyses are presented, addressing three primary aims: Aim 1: Comparing mental health between 2017 and 2021 – the likelihood of a mental disorder has been assessed against completion of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in both years in Topic 1 by various demographics. Aim 2: Describing life during the COVID-19 pandemic - Topic 2 examines the circumstances and experiences of children and young people in February/March 2021 and the preceding months, covering: COVID-19 infection and symptoms. Feelings about social media use. Family connectedness. Family functioning. Education, including missed days of schooling, access to resources, and support for those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Changes in circumstances. How lockdown and restrictions have affected children and young people’s lives. Seeking help for mental health concerns. Aim 3: Present more detailed data on the mental health, circumstances and experiences of children and young people by ethnic group during the coronavirus pandemic (where sample sizes allow). The data is broken down by gender and age bands of 6 to 10 year olds and 11 to 16 year olds for all categories, and 17 to 22 years old for certain categories where a time series is available, as well as by whether a child is unlikely to have a mental health disorder, possibly has a mental health disorder and probably has a mental health disorder. This study was funded by the Department of Health and Social Care, commissioned by NHS Digital, and carried out by the Office for National Statistics, the National Centre for Social Research, University of Cambridge and University of Exeter.

Of the U.S. parents of children under 18 years surveyed, more than half said their child's mental state concerned them. Moreover, 1 in 4 sought professional mental health help for their child[dren] due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This statistic shows the percentage of U.S. parents who were concerned with the mental health of their children and have sought help as of 2021.

In 2021, the percentage of children and adolescents who received treatment or counseling from a mental health professional in the past year varied across the United States. Vermont was the state with the highest percentage of children and adolescents who received mental health treatment, while Hawaii was the lowest. Across the U.S. the average rate was **** percent. This graph shows the percentage of children and adolescents in United States aged **** who received treatment or counseling from a mental health professional in the past 12 months as of 2021.

The organizational data contains non-personally identifying information on clients referred to, served by, admitted to, and discharged from CPRI.

According to an online survey conducted in January 2023, 55 percent of adults in the United States reported being very concerned about the impact of social media on children's mental health. Overall, almost one-third of U.S. adults stated they were somewhat concerned. Additionally, just six percent of adults said they were not at all worried about the effect that social media has on kids' mental health.

Between 2018 and 2019, nearly 26 percent of children and adolescents aged 12 to 17 years in the United States received mental health services. This statistic illustrates the percentage of children and adolescents in the U.S. who received any mental health treatment or services from 2013 to 2019, by age.

This publication provides the position for children and young people’s access to mental health services in England for 2018-19 based on the results of the CYP data validation exercise, conducted from May to July 2019. The indicator under consideration for this validation exercise is E.H.9: Improve Access rate to CYPMH, Part 2A. This is the number of children and young people, regardless of when their referral started, receiving at least two contacts (including indirect contacts), with the second contact falling in 2018-19, and where their first contact occurs before their 18th birthday. Full details of this indicator can be found at https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/joint-technical-definitions-performance-activity.pdf The purpose of this report is to provide a more accurate national 2018-19 end of year position for children and young people’s access to mental health services. A data validation exercise has been jointly developed and commissioned by NHS Digital and NHS England and NHS Improvement, using the Strategic Data Collection Service Classic (SDCS Classic). All NHS commissioned children and young people’s mental health services, including voluntary/independent sector providers funded by Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), have been required to confirm whether the value for this indicator derived from the Mental Health Services Dataset (MHSDS) for 2018-19 was accurate, or submit an alternative locally held figure if the MHSDS reported position was incomplete. All SDCS Classic submissions have been sent to CCGs to be validated. The accuracy of the MHSDS is dependent on all providers of NHS commissioned services ensuring they record and submit every patient contact. Reviews of MHSDS data indicated issues with the flow of accurate data from some providers, leading to under-reporting of their progress. More information on the quality and completeness of the estimates presented in this report can be found in the report file, with detailed information available in the appendices. These statistics supersede any MHSDS derived statistics for this indicator for 2018-19. MHSDS derived values have been released for Quarters 1 to 3 in this publication series. Statistics for Quarter 4 2018-19 accompany this report in a CSV file. These have been included for operational purposes in order for users to monitor the quality and completeness of these statistics in the MHSDS. They are to be used to understand the recording of this in MHSDS only. A restatement of MHSDS derived values, by month, for 2018-19 using a new methodology, to be used in 2019-20, has also been included as an Excel document for operational purposes. They are to be used to understand the change in methodology. Caution is needed when comparing 2018-19 data to the results of the 2017-18 exercise due to improved coverage; in 2018-19, 288 providers included data in the validation exercise (in comparison to 225 in 2017-18), 190 CCGs approved their submissions in 2018-19 (175 approved their submissions in 2017-18). These statistics are classified as experimental and subject to change. The classification of experimental statistics is in keeping with the UK Statistics Authority’s Code of Practice. Experimental statistics are new official statistics that are undergoing evaluation. They are published for a number of reasons; for example, in order to involve users and stakeholders in their development and as a means to build-in quality at an early stage. It is believed that these statistics have immediate value to users giving the most accurate position of children and young people’s access to mental health services for 2018-19; however users need to be aware of the statistics’ limitations and related cautions around their use, which are set out within this report, to make informed and qualified use of them. These statistics are experimental because they represent incomplete coverage and the methodology used in their definition and production have not been assured, as such they may not meet the overall quality standards necessary to be designated National Statistics. Please send any feedback on these statistics to enquiries@nhsdigital.nhs.uk with ‘CYP validation exercise statistics’ in the subject.

The Mental Health of Children and Young People Surveys (MHCYP) series provides data about the mental health of young people living in Great Britain.

The MHCYP was first carried out in 1999, capturing information on 5 to 15-year-olds. It was conducted by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) on behalf of the Department of Health (now known as the Department of Health and Social Care, or DHSC), The Scottish Health Executive and the National Assembly for Wales. The following survey in the series was conducted in 2002 and focused on children looked after by their local authority. The third survey was conducted in 2004 and collected information from 5 to 16-year-olds. Follow-ups to this survey were conducted after 6 months and again after 3 years.

NHS Digital commissioned the 2017 survey on behalf of the DHSC. It collected information on 2 to 19-year-olds living in England. The survey was carried out by a consortium led by NatCen Social Research, which included the ONS and Youth In Mind.

The MHCYP 2020 survey was a Wave 1 follow-up to the 2017 survey and was conducted under the COVID-19 Public Health Directions 2020, as directed by the then Secretary of State for Health. The Wave 2 follow-up was conducted in 2021, and Wave 3 in 2022.

Further information can be found on the NHS Digital Mental Health of Children and Young People Surveys webpage.

A similar series covering adults, the Adult Surveys of Psychiatric Morbidity, is also commissioned by NHS Digital.

The primary purpose of the Mental Health of Children and Adolescents in Great Britain, 1999 survey was to produce prevalence rates of three main categories of mental disorder:
conduct disorder;
hyperactivity;
emotional disorders (and their comorbidity);
based on ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases, tenth revision) and DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, fourth revision) criteria. Where there were sufficient numbers, the survey also aimed to provide prevalence rates of type of problem (e.g., separation anxiety, social phobia etc.) and to investigate the comorbidity or co-occurrence of disorders.

Experimental statistics from the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS) - Children & Young People

This publication provides the most timely picture available of people using NHS funded secondary mental health, learning disabilities and autism services in England. These are experimental statistics which are undergoing development and evaluation. This information will be of use to people needing access to information quickly for operational decision making and other purposes. More detailed information on the quality and completeness of these statistics is made available later in our Mental Health Bulletin: Annual Report publication series. • COVID-19 and the production of statistics Due to the coronavirus illness (COVID-19) disruption, the quality and coverage of some of our statistics has been affected, for example by an increase in non-submissions for some datasets. We are also seeing some different patterns in the submitted data. For example, fewer patients are being referred to hospital and more appointments being carried out via phone/telemedicine/email. Therefore, data should be interpreted with care over the COVID-19 period. • Early release of statistics To support the ongoing COVID-19 work, Provisional April 2021 monthly statistics were made available early and presented on our supplementary information pages. Please see the 'Supplementary information requests' section below. • Annual Statistics This publication includes annual statistics for the 2020-21 reporting year. Included are the number of People in contact with services - April 2020 to March 2021, and the number of People in contact with services with a hospital provider spell - April 2020 to March 2021, with age group breakdowns for both counts. In addition, the number of children and young people accessing NHS funded community mental health services (MHS69) - April 2020 to March 2021 are published here. Further annual statistics will be published in the annual Mental Health Bulletin. • Updates to measures For details of new measures, or changes to existing measures, see the 'Notes on Measures' page. Full details of any changes are also available in the associated Metadata file.

Abstract This research presents the care strategies in Child and Adolescent Mental Health (SMIJ) in the municipality of Guamiranga, located in the south-central region of the state of Paraná. We seek to understand which strategies are used, based on the experiences of Community Health Agents (CHA), to identify and monitor children who have demands for mental health care. This research was divided into three stages: accompanying home visits, a focal group with CHAs and an analysis and data systematization utilizing Institucional Analysis. We understand that in order to produce this complex care network for CAMHC, it´s necessary to overcome the logic of personification, especialization and medicalization in the hopes that this care model for the CAMHC becomes a part of the political agenda of the city. The care needs to be based on the logic of co-responsibility and intersectoriality so that it´s not set on education as the place responsible for these issues.

According to an online survey conducted in January 2023, 51 percent of adults in the United States felt the responsibility to protect children from social media harm fell upon parents. Overall, one in five respondents stated that the impact of social media on children's mental health was the responsibility of social media companies, and five percent said social media users were responsible for protecting kids from potential social media harm.
