Peak House accepts referrals from counsellors in the community. The involvement of the community Alcohol & Drug Counsellor is essential — their role is to provide an accurate assessment and referral, participate in treatment planning, provide follow-up counselling and assistance in aftercare planning. We strongly believe in the importance of ‘service matching’ clients to the appropriate resource, as such we rely on the expertise of community service providers to make appropriate referrals to our program.

The referral can be completed electronically in Adobe Acrobat. Referring Counsellors are invited to forward completed referrals directly to Peak House by fax or email.
