Mandarin 🎧 Special Support Phone Line for Responsible Gambling (特别的戒赌热线服务)
Many people with disabilities enjoy going to clubs and pubs because they are inclusive and welcoming venues. However, the opportunity to gamble at these venues may pose a risk to people's wellbeing if they develop risky gambling behaviours. Feeling in control of your money and your actions is an important part of having independence.
The Chinese Peer Support Program is a telephone service (1300 755 878) for people or their families and friends who are experiencing harm from gambling. It is staffed by Chinese speaking volunteers who have been through their own or a family member's issue in relation to out-of-control gambling behaviour.
许多残障人士喜欢去俱乐部和酒吧,因为它们是具包容性和受欢迎的场所。但是,如果他们发展出高风险的赌博行为,在这些场所赌博的机会可能会给人们的身心健康带来危害。感觉可以控制自己的金钱和行为是自我独立性的重要组成部分。
良朋互助是一个电话援助服务项目(1300 755 878), 适用于因赌博而受到伤害的人/或其家人,朋友。 服务热线由自己或家庭成员曾深受失控的赌博行为困扰的志愿者接听。
