Abstract

The burden of mental health problems is a leading issue in India, particularly among adolescents. According to the National Mental Health survey, 2016, the prevalence of mental health problems among the age group of 13–17 years is 7.3 % and the case is the same for both genders. It has also been stated that the prevalence rate is higher among urban adolescents compared to rural ones. Adolescent mental healthcare is a neglected area in Indian society as a result it influences mental healthcare access in India. The present study, therefore, aims to provide an amalgamated overview of the adolescent mental healthcare policies and programs in India and also to find out the challenges and barriers faced by the stakeholders with respect to delivery and access to adolescent mental healthcare.
