THE PEEL ADDICTION ASSESSMENT AND REFERRAL CENTRE

The Peel Addiction Assessment and Referral Centre provides substance use assessments and treatment referrals to individuals struggling with addiction in Mississauga and the surrounding region. The centre conducts clinical evaluations to understand each person's specific needs and connects them with appropriate addiction services, whether residential treatment, outpatient counselling, or peer support programs. By offering accessible assessment and navigation through a fragmented treatment landscape, the organization helps reduce barriers to care for people at critical points in their recovery journeys. The centre works with clients of varying backgrounds and addresses the complex relationship between addiction and mental health, recognizing that effective treatment requires understanding the whole person rather than just the substance use itself.
