Up to 80% of children in foster care have significant mental health issues, compared to approximately 18-22% of the general population.
Foster youth are prescribed psychotropic medications at a much higher rate than non-foster care youth.
The American Academy of Pediatrics, Healthy Foster Care American Initiative, identifies mental and behavioral health as the “greatest unmet health need for children and teens in foster care.”
Factors contributing to the mental and behavioral health of children and youth in foster care include; the history of complex trauma, frequently changing situations and transitions, broken family relationships, inconsistent and inadequate access to mental health services and the overall prescription of psychotropic medication.
