I am a PhD candidate at RKBU, Department of Mental Health, and over the next few years I will be researching what characterizes young people who receive Youth FACT (Flexible Assertive Community Treatment for youth) in Norway. The study will examine the type and degree of recovery among these young people, and how they themselves experience that the service promotes or hinders their recovery process. Data will be based on quantitative questionnaires from the youth and their contact person in Youth FACT, as well as qualitative interviews with 10–15 young people. The study is longitudinal, and data collection will span 18 months.
