13.84% of youth (age 12-17) report suffering from at least one major depressive episode (MDE) in the past year.
Childhood depression is more likely to persist into adulthood if gone untreated.
The number of youth experiencing MDE increased by 206,000 from last year's dataset.
The state prevalence of youth with MDE ranges from 10.53% in the District of Columbia to 17.57% in Oregon.

High percentages are associated with positive outcomes and low percentages are associated with poorer outcomes.
Nationally, only 27.3% of youth with severe depression receive some consistent treatment (7-25+ visits in a year).
Late recognition in primary care settings and limited coverage of mental health services often prevent youth from receiving timely and effective treatment.
The state prevalence of youth with severe depression who received some outpatient treatment ranges from 50.0% in Maine to 11.2% in Nevada.

The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity law (MHPAE) was enacted in 2008, and promised the equal coverage of mental health and substance use services. The rate of children with private insurance that does not cover mental or emotional problems decreased 0.3% from last year's dataset. However, there are still 901,000 youth without coverage for their behavioral health.
In 2019, a Milliman research report found large disparities between behavioral health and medical/surgical services, including that patients saw out-of-network behavioral health providers at much higher rates than physical health providers. It also found that these disparities were worse for children. In 2017, a behavioral health visit for a child was over 10 times more likely to be out-of-network than a primary care office visit. This was over two times the disparity shown for adults.
To improve the worsening mental health of children and adolescents in the U.S., insurance companies must not only achieve parity in coverage of services, but also in network adequacy, so people are able to access those services when they need them.
The state prevalence of children lacking mental health coverage ranges from 0.6% in Vermont to 14.8% in South Carolina.

High percentages are associated with positive outcomes and low percentages are associated with poorer outcomes
Only .757% of students are identified as having an Emotional Disturbance (ED) for an Individualized Education Program (IEP).
For purposes of an IEP, the term ìEmotional Disturbanceî is used to define youth with a mental illness that is affecting their ability to succeed in school.
Early identification for IEPs is critical. IEPs provide the services, accommodations and support students with ED need to receive a quality education. Inadequate education leads to poor outcomes such as low academic achievement, social isolation, unemployment, and involvement in the juvenile system. Further, the federal eligibility criteria to identify students as having an emotional disturbance for an IEP have indicated extremely poor reliability among school psychologists,2 and therefore must be revised to adequately identify students in need of more supports.
The rate for this measure is shown as a rate per 1,000 students.
The calculation was made this way for ease of reading.Unfortunately, doing so hides the fact that the percentages are significantly lower. If states were doing a better job of identifying whether youth had emotional difficulties that could be better supported through an IEP ñ the rates would be closer to 8% instead of .8 percent.
The state rate of students identified as having an emotional disturbance for an IEP ranges from 30.41 per 1,000 students in Vermont to 2.09 per 1,000 students in Alabama.
