Our Intake process

How To Get Started

You can contact Kinship House directly and speak with the intake coordinator.  If you would like to refer someone to Kinship House, please complete the referral form and return to Kinship House via fax at (503) 460-3750 or mail. Our intake coordinator can be reached at (503) 724-6878. You will be contacted by a Kinship House therapist after the referral is received.

The Kinship House treatment team meets weekly to review new referrals and assign them in order of receipt and based on level of urgency. Once we receive your form we will review it and assign it. Please wait for a call from your assigned therapist who should notify you within two weeks to schedule your initial assessment appointment. If you have not heard any information within this time frame or the urgency of your referral increases then please contact the Kinship House intake coordinator at 503-724-6878.

If you are requesting an assessment or transitional services that require either Administrative Medical dollars or a System of Care (SOC) contract the process of assigning a case is different. In the case of Administrative Medical dollars we will need proof of payment or receipt of the actual vouchers before the assessment will be assigned to a clinician and an appointment scheduled. For SOC contracts, we will need to review the contract and receive a notice to proceed with services.
