Abstract

ABSTRACT The prevalence of mental health challenges in the United States continues to rise in children and adolescents. Despite increasing rates, mental health treatment utilization remains low, particularly for youth of color. Considering the experiences of oppression, racism, and discrimination against youth of color, coupled with systematic inequalities illuminated by COVID, mental health risks are further exacerbated. These factors highlight the need for mental health interventions that address the unique experiences of minoritized children and adolescents. Because research informs practice, it is essential for researchers to work toward dismantling oppression through antiracist research. Thus, this article provides guidelines and considerations for conducting antiracist mental health research with youth of color.
