#What is young people's experience and awareness of mental health services and information in Scotland?

In her blog Kirsty McCahill, (MSYP) discuses the alarming results of “Our Generations Epidemic” which reports the results of a consultation with young people across Scotland’s 32 local authorities in relation to mental health. The results highlight that 74% of young people don’t know what information, support, and services are available in their local area. This seems extremely worrying given that from our experience we know there is a strong link with good mental health and positive family relationships.

See below for a link to the full report. You can post any questions for Kirsty or your thoughts on this topic here.
