This information is not collected in the format requested. However, the following table shows the number of referrals made to each service provided by Op COURAGE: the Transition, Intervention and Liaison Service (TILS); the Complex Treatment Services (CTS); and since its commencement in 2020, the High Intensity Service (HIS), in each month since January 2019.
