The Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction recently released new guidelines on lower-risk gambling. Rideauwood welcomes the guidelines and invites you to take a look.
If you are worried about your own gambling or that of someone you care about, please reach out for help. Rideauwood counsellors are here to help people impacted by behavioural addictions, such as addiction to gambling.
Generosity from TD Bank Group Expands Vital Peer Support Program
Rideauwood Addiction and Family Services is thrilled to announce that TD Bank Group (TD) has awarded the organization a TD Ready Commitment Grant of $40,000 to continue and expand the Recovery Peer Support program.
This past weekend, Rideauwood was featured on An Hour to Give, the Rogers TV and Country 101.1FM show dedicated to showcasing local charities.
By providing trauma-informed care, we can support people in reducing the risks and problems caused by addiction while also supporting, educating and developing strategies to increase their quality of life that trauma and chronic stress have impacted.
During COVID-19, Rideauwood has partnered with other agencies through CounsellingConnect to help youth, young adults and adults who are dealing with substance use issues, or other problematic behaviour such as gambling and gaming or supporting a friend/family member who is. If you are interested in a single session to explore these issues, help is just a click away.
