Abstract

Young people (YP) in conflict with the law have the worst health outcomes than the general population. Studies show that YP that were incarcerated will have worse physical and mental health outcomes (Barnert et al., 2017). One aspect is still to be considered in more depth, which regards the place of stigma (Hatzenbuehler, Phelan, Link, 2013) and symbolic violence (Bourdieu, 1989) as a factor that can impact on health outcomes for YP in conflict with the law.

Young people in conflict with the law and the interaction with practitioners: Initial findings related to health care outcomes in the Scottish context

Virtual Event

Young people (YP) in conflict with the law have the worst health outcomes than the general population. Studies show that YP that were incarcerated will have worse physical and mental health outcomes (Barnert et al., 2017). One aspect is still to be considered in more depth, which regards the place of stigma (Hatzenbuehler, Phelan, Link, 2013) and symbolic violence (Bourdieu, 1989) as a factor that can impact on health outcomes for YP in conflict with the law.
