Abstrakt:	Numerous recommendations have been made to address the high rates of mental health disorders among justice-involved youth. Few data are available on the use, quality, appropriateness, or availability of services to address these needs. This study examined the relationship between trauma-informed mental health screening, other referral pathways for diagnostic evaluation, subsequent DSM-5 diagnoses, and treatments for evaluated youth. Eligible participants were all youth admitted to New York City secure juvenile detention facilities from September 17, 2015 to October 30, 2016 who remained in the facility for at least five days ( N = 786). Of those, 581 (73.9%) were voluntarily screened and 309 (53.2%) later received a diagnostic evaluation. Youth who screened positive for depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, and problematic substance use were more likely to be evaluated. Treatment received was related to diagnosis rather than reason for referral. For youth who were referred for behavioral or emotional concerns, 99.1 percent (114 of 115) of those diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disorder had attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These data are among the first to describe DSM-5 diagnoses and treatment among youth detainees. They highlight the prevalence of ADHD in detained youth and argue for the coordination of universal trauma-informed mental health screening and a structured referral system for this population.
