At Risk Youth

Due to distressing childhoods, leading to academic, social, and mental health challenges, often linked to trauma and neglect.

Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

The term “at-risk youth” is often used in mental health, referring to children with distressing childhood experiences. They face elevated risks of academic, occupational, and social difficulties, often stemming from limited caregiver attachments, making them prone to self-harm, substance abuse, and mental health disorders. Child abuse experiences increase these risks, with common mental health issues including Conduct Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and ADHD. This definition is essential for tailored support and interventions to aid their well-being and success.
