Australians living in rural and regional areas are at higher risk of alcohol and drug addiction due to isolation, stress and cultural factors.

But support services in these areas are in short supply, far away and hard to get to.

If you need support, please phone Lifeline on 13 11 14 or 13Yarn on 13 92 76.

For the alcohol and drug information support service in your state or territory, call 1800 250 015.
