Statistics links
To complement the work of the Centre of Excellence in terms of
the evidence mapping project and the creation of evidence summary
resources, there are times when what is needed is data on
prevalence rates and burden of disease in young people with mental
and substance use disorders. We have created a list of links to
assist your search for such data and would welcome your feedback if
there are reports or additional documents that could be added to
this list
