Young People Talk About Digital Support for Mental Health
BACKGROUND: Mental distress is on the rise for young people, and there are high levels of unmet need for support.

We surveyed young people, 15-30 years of age, in Aotearoa New Zealand to explore their views of digital support for mental health. The aim of this study was to find out from young p…
Therapist Voices on a Youth Mental Health Pilot

Therapists' views on cultural responsiveness, therapy (delivery, modality and duration) and working with LGBTQIA+ youth were explored using two surveys, individual interviews and focus groups at various stages of the life of the pilot. Some …

Young people talk about primary care and telehealth
Young people are known to face challenges when accessing healthcare and generally have low rates of health service utilisation.

This online survey of 15- to 25-year olds in the greater Wellington region of New Zealand sought young people's views on telehealth (phone and videocalls) as a means of accessing primary care. The su…

This paper reports on the reflections from members of the evaluation team – both allies and service user academics – about a co-produced approach to evaluation of the pilot of a youth-integrated therapies mental health intervention (co-evaluation). The co-evaluation is being facilitated particularly well through numerous service user academics being involved in the evaluation, and the commitment to co-production and active attendance to the respo…
Interagency collaborative care for young people with complex needs
Worldwide, a growing burden of health and social issues now affect young people. Interagency collaboration and the "integration" of health and social care services are advocated to address the increasingly complex needs of at-risk youth and to reduce barriers to accessing care. In New Zealand, Youth-One-Stop-Shops (YOSSs) provide integrated health and social care to young people with complex needs. Little is known about how YOSSs facilitate colla…

Falls Assessment Clinical Trial (Fact)
The two recruitment strategies and the community based intervention delivery were feasible and successful, identifying a high risk group with multiple falls.
