Safe Harbor Adolescent Recovery Program


INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING S H A R P REFERRAL FORM:

1)Fill out the form COMPLETELY. The areas included on this 5-page document were streamlined to make it easier to refer a youth. It is difficult to process the youth with incomplete information.

2)Please feel free to use additional space if needed.

3)DO NOT SKIP THE FAMILY MEMBER information section. It is important to understand whether the youth lives with their family members or not, if they have siblings, bio-mother, bio-father (or other).

4)If you have any questions you may contact the director, John McLean at 231-547-8192, or 231-675-3803 at any time. Please leave a message or even text him – he will get back to you. You may also email him at:

(We work in a fast paced environment with archaic technology at times). Be sure and attach or send along any Substance Abuse evaluation or findings, Psychological Evaluations or Counselor/Therapists opinions that will help indicate the youth’s level of addiction, problems and other information that will assist us

6)Once you have received confirmation that your referral has been accepted, you can submit the INTAKE PACKET. Please read the instructions for completing that as well. As with any government entity it is becoming a necessity to submit the proper information PRIOR to the youth’s arrival.

7) If it is indicated that the youth is under the care and custody of someone other than his biological/adoptive parents – the referring court MUST provide a copy of the Letters of Guardianship issued by the appropriate court giving legal authority to the adult who is signing the INTAKE PACKET documents. If this is a family court situation, the Order indicating the youth was placed in the care and custody of someone other than his/her parent MUST be included with the paperwork.
