Engaging young people in routine outcome monitoring

Youth participation is a high priority for mental health services and services are increasingly working to embed youth voice throughout practice. We believe youth participation should be adopted within services using evidence-based frameworks and guidance, but we understand the many possible challenges that can come with this.

Join us for this short training session, where we will introduce participants to what young people think about routine outcome measures, a right’s-based model in participation and how to feedback, on the feedback. 

Who is this training for?

Mental health and wellbeing practitioners and service providers working with young people in statutory services or in community organisations.

What are its aims?

To explore how young people can be meaningfully involved in the processes and practices of routine outcome measurement. Participants will consider how to ensure young people’s voice is given due weight and hear practical suggestions for improving participation in their service.
