Abstract
For children and young people experiencing a mental health illness can affect all aspects of their future
development, therefore, prevention and early intervention is the key to stemming the long term effects. Child and
adolescent disorders encompass a broad range of disorders from psychosis, depression and eating disorders,
through anxiety and attachment disorders to autism and pervasive developmental disorders.
