Community Agency Support – Our local agencies such as Child and Youth Mental Health, St. Leonard’s and Cameray are continuing to offer counselling support, mainly through electronic means. New intakes are continuing (remotely).
At CYMH they are open during their regular walk-in hours for intake. However, if families come to the office, they will in most cases be asked to set up a virtual intake meeting time instead of in person.
