Summary
This chapter focuses on identifying and reviewing current clinical recommendations for the following special populations of children and adolescents: rural populations, ethnic minority populations, sexual and gender minorities, and youth in the juvenile justice system. Each of the common barriers to treatment with these populations is identified, as well as clinical recommendations for working effectively with children and adolescents with these identities or contextual factors. Ethical concerns associated with working effectively with each population are indicated, with resources to help clinicians engage these patients in a skilled and affirmative manner. Supplementary sources of information are also identified to help encourage clinicians’ continued exploration into current clinical guidelines for working with children and adolescents within these special populations.
