Compass Referral

Did you know? Compass is improving the way that children, youth and families access our services! Starting spring 2024, children and youth can now self-refer for free services directly through our website. We have also made things easier for community service providers, medical professionals and educators, to get support for their clients with just a few clicks of the mouse.


How to Access Services

Compass’s intake is the front door to services and supports for children and youth who need help with a mental health issue. Following the initial meeting, a Clinician will guide you through your next steps, which may involve short-term support options, ongoing services, long-term solutions, and referrals to other providers. It’s important to note, this is not a counselling service but an access point to a wide range of Compass programs including groups, therapy, and intensive services. You do not require an Ontario Health Card to access services at Compass.
