BC Gambling Support Line: 1-888-795-6111

Call this number 24/7 if you are in crisis and need gambling support.  They are there to listen.  They can also provide you with supports and are another way to access my services.  I will respond to a message or email within 24 hours (usually less) but I am not the best person to contact when you are in crisis.  The Gambling Support Line is always there to talk to, in the moment.  Interpretation in 160 languages is available.

GamTalk : Chat Room and Forums
