入选标准

  • Two groups of participants are identified. The CCDT employs a gatekeeper model and is developed for trusted and respected community members (‘community gatekeepers’). Community gatekeepers use the CCDT to proactively detect children in need of mental healthcare to encourage help-seeking.
  • Community gatekeepers:
  • Community gatekeepers will be selected from WCH’s and TPO’s existing networks and community-based structures. They include: Village Health Teams (VHTs), teachers, group activity facilitators, child protection committee members, local community leaders and refugee committee leaders. They will be selected, based on the below criteria, by WCH’s and TPO’s Project Coordinators, responsible for ongoing programming with children and adolescents in each cluster.
  • Specific inclusion criteria are:
  • 1. At least 18 years of age
  • 2. Trusted and respected members from the community
  • 3. Engaged in promoting child wellbeing
  • 4. Access to children, adolescents and caregivers
  • 5. Demonstrate a high level of empathy and interest in children’s wellbeing
  • 6. Willing to provide informed consent and participate in supervision meetings to provide feedback on the feasibility of the approach
  • 7. Willing to sign and follow WCH’s Child Safeguarding Policy, Code of Conduct and Code of Ethical conduct in using the CCDT
  • Children, adolescents, and their caregivers:
  • Children, adolescents aged 6-18 years old, and their caregivers will be proactively identified by the trained community gatekeepers based on a match with the CCDT (i.e., children and adolescents in need of mental healthcare services). Whenever a trained gatekeeper encounters a child or adolescent that matches with the tool, they will hand out a referral card for TPO and encourage help-seeking at TPO’s clinical team serving their zone.
