INBRIEF: Early Childhood Mental Health

Essential findings in EC MH Significant mental health problems can and do occur in young children. In some cases, these problems can have serious consequences for early learning, social competence, and lifelong physical health. Children can show clear characteristics of anxiety disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, depression, post- traumatic stress disorder, and neurodevelopmental disabilities, such as autism, at a very early age.

Essential findings in EC MH Challenges to mental health arise as a result of the interaction between a child’s genetic predispositions and his or her exposure to significant adversity in the environment. Toxic stress, which is the result of strong, frequent and/or prolonged biological responses to adversity, can damage the architecture of the developing brain and increase the likelihood of significant mental health problems that may emerge either quickly or years later.

Essential findings in EC MH Some individuals demonstrate remarkable capacities to overcome the severe challenges of early, persistent maltreatment, trauma, and emotional harm, yet there are limits to the ability of young children to recover psychologically from such adversity.

Essential findings in EC MH It is essential to treat young children’s mental health problems within the context of their families, homes, and communities.
