What sorts of referrals are available?

There are many different programs and agencies that help youth, depending on the community where you live. Some examples include

  • recreation programs,
  • counselling for young people,
  • mental health agencies,
  • child welfare offices, or
  • youth justice committees.

You must agree that you would like to be referred to one of these agencies, and you may talk to a lawyer about it before you agree.
