ACTS went "live" in July 2019 and received the Royal College of Psychiatrists Award 2020 for Psychiatric Team of the Year: Children and Adolescents.
ACTS has prevented roughly half of all GAU admissions across five London Boroughs in the past four years as well as demonstrating improved clinical and functional outcomes for young people.
The work we do involves supporting young people and their families during times of high risk and high distress. ACTS offers excellent clinical supervision, reflective practice and ongoing training opportunities.
