Support teams for adolescents

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Adolescent support teams have developed rapidly since the early 1990s but little is known about their work. Their principal aim is to divert young people from the care system and they typically provide a short-term, intensive, preventive service to young people and families.
