Out of the Shadows? is a publication written by 11 MILLION in collaboration
with YoungMinds and representatives of VIK (Very Important Kids).
It provides an overview of the responses to the recommendations set out in Pushed into the Shadows - young people’s experience of adult mental health facilities (an earlier publication that described the experiences of children and young people admitted on to adult psychiatric wards).
