Court Clinic Program
Our Court Clinic Program assesses the mental health of youth who have been charged with criminal offences under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. At the request of the Criminal and Family Courts of the Region of Peel, our comprehensive assessments assist presiding judges in their sentencing of these youth.

Who is eligible for this program?
We assess youth 12 to 18 years of age, living in the Region of Peel*


*Our Court Clinic Program also serves those who do not reside in the Region of Peel. If Peel Children's Centre is the most accessible by a family whose youth has committed a crime within the Region of Peel, they are welcome to use our service.

We prepare and submit the report to the Court. This report summarizes the assessment and offers recommendations about the youth and his or her family or guardian. Our clinic staff may also consult on the youth’s case with Probation Services.
