Assistance in Recovery’s gambling addiction interventions focus on how gambling can affect the entire family, group of friends, or job performance and provides the tools to adequately deal with the situation. Interventions establish healthy boundaries and restore order in lives while urging the addicted to accept treatment or face the consequences of their actions without their support network remaining involved.
