The Journal of Child & Adolescent Mental Health aims to contribute towards the development of a robust and inclusive knowledge base for child and adolescent mental health across diverse contexts. To this end, it seeks to promote coverage, representation and dissemination of high quality work from around the world that traverses high-, middle- and low- income contexts. The journal is published in association with the South African Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, South Africa.
