This briefing looks at recent research literature on the move from child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) to adults’ services for young people with psychological, emotional or behavioural problems. The literature is UK-based, with a small amount of literature included from the USA and Australia. The briefing looks at what professionals, young people, parents, carers and families think about mental health service transitions and what their experience has been. It also identifies existing evidence for good practice and service models in supporting successful service transitions. The evidence is discussed in the areas of: problems and challenges in transitions; social exclusion and mental health service transitions; good practice and service models; and the limitations of published research. Implications from the research are listed for different stakeholders.
