Mental health service transitions for young people
Working better together: Introduction
Effective support for children and families cannot be achieved by a single agency working alone. It depends on a number of agencies working well together. It is a multi-disciplinary task. (20)

Work collaboratively with other professionals and agencies: staff should know how each other's services operate in order to provide co-ordinated and joined-up services.
In this section we look at the key ways of sharing an understanding of different services, and ways in which working well together can be enhanced and supported.
