In-depth interviews were conducted with health care practitioners, informal caregivers, and other individuals who work with children with emotional and behavioural problems. Facilitators of and barriers to care were identified and discussed. The study was conducted in the Sudbury and Owen Sound areas. The research project was based on an approach designed to have decision-makers participate in all aspects of the study from implementation to dissemination.
