Neurodivergent Young People Fall Through the Cracks When Child Mental Health Care Ends
Reports highlight that neurodivergent young people often lose access to mental health support when they transition out of child and adolescent services. At that point, adult services may not be equipped or eligible to meet their needs, leaving many without continuity of care. Commentators are calling attention to the gap and urging better transition planning between child and adult systems.
Why now: Ongoing concern about gaps in mental health services for young people as they move into adult care.
