This study compares mental health treatment-seeking children and youth who have experienced warzone-related trauma to other treatment-seeking children and youth to determine similarities and differences and aid in care planning. Data from 53 agencies across Ontario from 2015-2022 were analysed, resulting in a sample of 25,843 individuals, 188 of which met the warzone and immigration criteria. Individuals who experienced warzone-related trauma were less likely to: (a) have a psychiatric diagnosis
(b) speak English, and
(c) have close friends. Collaborative Action Plans (CAPS) related to traumatic life events, parenting, and informal support were triggered at a higher rate for those who experienced warzone-related trauma compared to those who did not. This study highlights areas where children and youth who have experienced warzone-related trauma require improved access to services. Findings also highlight issues related to a needs-based approach to service delivery to facilitate improved outcomes for these vulnerable children and their families.
