Composantes clés et conditions de succès de mise en œuvre et d’efficacité des réseaux de services intégrés pour les jeunes de 12 à 25 ans – EN

The implementation of integrated youth services networks (IYSNs) in Quebec and elsewhere in the world demonstrates the desire of decision-makers to respond effectively to the overall health problems of young people aged 12 to 25. The objective of this evaluation was to analyze the implementation context and effectiveness of this model. The evaluation questions focused on the facilitators and barriers to the implementation of an IYSN; its effectiveness (in terms of improving the health and well-being of youth and their trajectory); and its efficiency (cost-benefit, cost-effectiveness; cost-utility). The evaluation also looked at potential variations in implementation and effectiveness when services are provided to ethnoculturally diverse youth. Five internationally integrated service networks were studied (headspace, Australia; Youth One-Stop Shop, New Zealand; Jigsaw, Ireland; Foundry, Canada; Prépsy, France). The systematic literature review identified, among other things, nine (9) key components in the implementation and delivery of services in YISNs that were validated in consultation with youth and stakeholders.
