How does this approach appropriately acknowledge childrens individual needs and allow them to be seen\, heard and supported?Does racism have a profound impact on children and young peoples mental health? What if anything can professionals do to buck the trend?The conference seeks to consider the impact on children and young people\, of the failure of professional agencies to adequately identify and support children’s mental health\, and to critically analyse the impact of racism on mental health diagnoses\; what can we\, as professionals\, do to support them and their needs? \n\nTo consider the long-term impact and whether these failings and lack of support do contribute to the journey of these young people into the DOL’S orders system\, where children with significant mental health issues become marginalised and for whom placements are not available and often ‘bespoke.’  \n\nConference Chair:  Beverley Barnett-Jones MBE\, Associate Director (Practice and Impact) Nuffield Family Justice Observatory\n\nThe highly experienced presenters who will challenge and hopefully channel our thinking have been chosen from differing perspectives and include:\n\nDr Harbrinder Dhillon-Stevens.
