Abstract: The current study examines targets of treatment and intervention strategies of youths with and without schizophrenia-spectrum diagnoses utilizing services within a state public mental health system of care. Service records of youths with schizophrenia-spectrum diagnoses were compared to all other youths receiving services. Specific treatment targets and techniques were more frequently reported in the spectrum group relative to the non-spectrum group. This research on targets of treatment and specific treatment strategies offers preliminary insight into common goals of treatment and clinical practices employed in this under studied population.
