1 Assessment, Information and Referral Services
Assessment and Referral Services are a good place to get started when looking for help for an addiction problem. It usually involves seeing an addictions professoinal for one or two sessions (each about one or two hours). The service can help you decide whether or not you need treatment, as well as where to go for treatment.
Information and Referral Services are somewhat similar to Assessment Services in that they help people find help. Unlike Assessment Services though, where you generally have to go see someone in person, Information and Referral services generally provide information by a telephone call or website.
