How We Can Help
Apply to become a Parent and Family Drug Support Volunteer
Our volunteers have lived experience of supporting someone they care about through their alcohol and/or other drug use.
Volunteers provide telephone support on the Parent and Family Drug Support Line. Our helpline is for consumers, concerned others, family members, carers or health professionals. The calls are answered by qualified counsellors, who can arrange transfer or call-backs with the volunteers.
