A case manager can be any publicly funded child youth mental health provider working with children and youth (i.e., family health teams, youth hubs, school boards, friendship centres, etc.). Referring case manager must complete a Tele-Mental Health Services (TMHS) Referral Package and send it to the Coordinating Agency dedicated to servicing their community.
