Urban Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services weaves together different strands of mental health work undertaken in one inner-city Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service by professionals working in a range of ways.

The chapters cover a range of settings and approaches, addressing the social, cultural, political and community contexts impacting on children, young people and families.
