Abstract

The lives of Children and Adolescents with PaRental mental Illness (CAPRI) represent a public health priority. Identifying those at most risk within the risk subset is crucial to promote resilience for this group. The ability to develop child-centred interventions will underpin the success of evidence-based services and CAPRI themselves are key to unlocking current service barriers.
