YouthCHAT is a version of an NZ-developed case-finding and help assessment tool (eCHAT) that has been adapted for use by young people to identify possible issues related to their mental health, lifestyle, and well-being.It can help recognise a range of concerns, including:- Mental Health (Depression, Anxiety, Difficulty with Anger Control, Life Stressors)- Lifestyle (Problematic Smoking, Vaping, Drinking, Recreational Drug Use, Gambling, Gaming, Exposure to Abuse, Physical Inactivity)- Other (Behaviour / Conduct, Sexual Identity, Sexual Health, Body Image)YouthCHAT was initially developed in 2015 for research purposes, and has since been modernised and rolled out into youth health services by Kekeno as of 2021.We have spent the last few years working alongside Professors Felicity Goodyear-Smith and Jim Warren, along with a team at the Faculty of Medical & Health Science at The University of Auckland to develop YouthCHAT into the great tool it is today! Doctors Rhiannon Martel and Hiran Thabrew have also played a huge part in the development process.This process has required us to work closely with researchers and professors, to maintain an accurate and validated tool, while also improving user experience, and careful approaches to sensitive topics.YouthCHAT is currently used in over 100 clinics and schools throughout New Zealand - and is continuing to expand. Notably, Te Whatu Ora, ProCare, Healthwest, Pinnacle Healthcare, and most recently, Starship Children's Hospital are among the organisations utilising YouthCHAT to identify and address the needs of young people.At Kekeno, we are responsible for all aspects of YouthCHAT software, including design and software engineering.We work closely with The University of Auckland, which owns the rights to the questionnaire IP, to ensure that YouthCHAT remains an accurate and validated tool.
