If gambling is destroying you or someone you care about, a new group in Dauphin is here to help.
“We decided that there is need for an anonymity group that deals specifically with gambling. Gambling is a problem that affects people all over the world. Its ruined families, " said an organizer.
The Parkland Gamblers Anonymous Group is planning to hold their first meeting on Tuesday, April 2nd.
“Gambling is an emotional disease, and it is a disease. It’s not just something that we can quit on our own. So through fellowship and through brother and sisterhood, we hope to be able to help people.”
With this group, those suffering won’t need to drive to Brandon or Winnipeg to seek support.
Every Tuesday, at 7:30pm, the group is planning to hold meetings at the Dauphin Friendship Centre.
