This booklet has been put together by the Adolescent Unit at Princess Margaret Hospital to provide health professionals with information and contact details about local services for adolescents and young adults.

The information is divided into the following areas:

• Mental Health Services
• Family Therapy / Parent – Teen conflict

• Sexual Health Services
• Drug and Alcohol Services
• Obesity Programmes
• Sexual assault/ Physical Abuse Services

This is designed to be a practical resource for health professionals working with adolescents and young adults. We welcome any comments or suggestions, particularly regarding other services which should be included. This is up to date as of August 2012. Please also contact the Adolescent Unit if the contact information is found to be inaccurate or if any other errors of fact are noted.
