Gamblers Anonymous is the most effective self help organization dealing with recovery from compulsive gambling. The applied and continued use of the GA 12 steps of recovery, the GA 12 unity steps and the GA recovery tools of:

  •  Meetings

These tools offer all members a complete recovery program filled with personal growth, sparkle and quality recovery.

Victoria Gamblers Anonymous is made up completely of recovering members. We have no professionals or counselors. It is a completely self help program, where members grow and recover at their own pace. The more experienced members are available to assist the newer members, when required. 

 

 

 

Regular attendance at GA meetings and using the GA 12 Recovery Steps are the best treatment for recovering gamblers/ adrenalin addicts. 

The GA recovery steps are adapted with permission from the AA twelve steps, which were written in 1937 from an accumulation of spiritual principles from various recovery and religious organizations. 

These steps are non-denominational thereby opening  GA membership to all races, religions,  professions and social levels. 

 

Gamblers Anonymous membership is open to anyone

  who has a desire to stop gambling compulsively. 

There are no dues or fees for GA membership.
