In effort to best support our clients and provide holistic care, JACS is partnering with Bridges Medical Clinic to provide virtual addiction and mental health medical services. These services include addiction medication management, medical bridging before and after inpatient and/or outpatient treatments, medical monitoring for workplace and family law applications, consultations, assessments, and more. Bridges Medical Clinicโ€™s team is comprised of both addiction medicine physicians andย psychiatrists. Many servicesย are OHIP covered.

Our Impact

In the post-pandemic era, where issues surrounding mental health and addictions were brought to the forefront, JACSโ€™ suite of services have grown beyond supporting individuals and family members struggling with substance abuse.ย  We supportย  anyone who is struggling, regardless of their background or financial status.
