Abstract
In 2015 around 1 in 6 young people aged 18 years and under in Northern Ireland (NI) were currently, or had been previously, known to social services. Research suggests that such children have poorer mental health than their peers who have had no contact with social services. However, there is a paucity of local knowledge within NI. Our programme of research explores the mental health of all children known to social services in NI in 2015
