Conversations About Gambling - Free Course Funded by NSW GambleAware

Whether you’re an individual or part of a group or organisation that supports people experiencing gambling harm, these courses provide the essential skills to support those in need

The free training is available to any adults in NSW seeking to help family, friends, co-workers or others in their community who may be experiencing gambling harm or a gambling-related mental health crisis.

It takes courage and commitment to support someone struggling with gambling on their journey to change. Although you’re an important part of this process, remember it’s your friend or loved one who has to take responsibility for their own gambling.

Getting a conversation going is one of the most important things you can do. It’s the first step to your friend or family member opening up and acknowledging that they’re struggling. There are strategies you can try.

Mental Health First Aid International has partnered with the Office of Responsible Gambling NSW to deliver free Conversations about Gambling and Talking about Gambling courses in the state.

For individuals who support Aboriginal and Torrres Strait Islander peoples, the Talking about Gambling course grounds the material in social and emotional wellbeing from a First Nations perspective, equipping participants with the skills to provide mental health first aid in a culturally safe and informed way.

Register for a course or share information with members of your community to help make a difference to those experiencing gambling harm.
