Alcohol & other drug services for me

At Mental Health Families and Friends Tasmania, we don’t judge people who use alcohol and other drugs. What we’re focused on is the link between co-occurring conditions or concerns around alcohol and other drugs and mental health and well-being.

There’s a range of services across Tasmania; they can help support you to take good care of yourself at whatever stage you’re at in your recovery journey. We’ve added some to this list. Services like counselling, education, mental health initiatives and programs, clinical care, outreach services, recreational community programs, and referral to other prevention programs.

While this isn’t an exhaustive list, we’ll do our best to keep it up to date. If there’s a service that should be added or deleted, please let us know by emailing admin@mhfftas.org.au
