Abstract: There are well-documented disparities in access to mental health care for children and youth with significant behavioral health needs. Few studies that explored the differential experiences of families who use private vs public sources of financing (i.e., insurance and funding) in accessing residential treatment (RT) for children and youth. This study aimed to examine the lived experiences of families accessing psychiatric residential treatment (RT) and contextualize these experiences based on source of financing.
