Smaller population centres can also compound perceived stigma, a major factor in preventing people from seeking help.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is why the way we talk about gambling and gambling harm is important. In 2024 during Gambling Harm Action Week we developed a guide to help inform the community and media professionals on how to have more effective conversations about gambling harm in ways that doesn\u2019t stigmatise or shame and ultimately promotes help seeking, (and) this is available on our website for anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Spreckley said initiatives from DHS \u2013 utilising public awareness and education campaigns \u2013 highlighted the need for harm minimalisation, focusing on early intervention, treatment services, targeted supports, and workforce development and community capacity building.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDHS approaches gambling harm as a public health challenge, rather than solely an individual behavioural issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA public health framework recognises that gambling harm exists on a spectrum \u2014 from low risk through to severe harm \u2014 and that impacts extend beyond the individual to families, workplaces and communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRecent public health initiatives in South Australia reflect this broader approach, (and) campaigns such as \u2018Spot the Harm. Stop the Harm\u2019 aimed to increase community awareness of the less-visible signs of gambling harm \u2014 particularly emotional and relational indicators, not just financial loss. Similarly, Here for the Game promotes safer gambling environments in sporting contexts and encourages a focus on sport and community connection, rather than betting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActing early is central to a public health model, (as) research consistently shows that gambling harms accumulate over time, with financial stress, psychological distress and relationship conflict intensifying as gambling behaviour escalates. Early intervention reduces the likelihood of compounding harms and lowers long-term social and economic costs to individuals and communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Spreckley said while some signs of gambling harm were clear \u2013 someone \u2018chasing losses\u2019 \u2013 others, such as being secretive about gambling, could be difficult to detect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGambling-related harm can include financial harm, damage to relationships, declines in psychological and emotional well-being and physical health, loss of work and study opportunities, neglect of cultural responsibilities and\/or involvement with the criminal justice system,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is no different for people from the regions in South Australia, but we do know rates of gambling harm are a little higher regionally than metropolitan Adelaide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also know in regional communities, where social networks are close-knit, the emotional and relational impacts can be especially significant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGambling harm often co-exists with other challenges such as alcohol use, family stress or mental health concerns and importantly, the harm is not limited to the person gambling \u2014 partners, children, parents, friends and colleagues can all experience stress, fear and uncertainty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Spreckley said numerous avenues for support were available for those living in regional areas and struggling with gambling harm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no one \u2018silver bullet\u2019 when it comes to addressing gambling harm, but we are very fortunate in SA to have a wide range of effective, but also free and confidential service offerings that people can benefit from,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis includes world-leading, evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy treatment, as well as a wide range of harm minimisation tools and supports, including methods to bar yourself from gambling such as Betstop, or a variety of resources available online (<a href=\"http:\/\/gamblinghelponline.org.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gamblinghelponline.org.au<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll it takes is for someone to pick up the phone anytime of the day, give the gambling help line a call and ask to be put in touch with someone from your local area who can help you navigate your options. This is free, confidential and most importantly ready to help anyone dealing with gambling harm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile it is true for many, reaching out and asking for help can be difficult \u2013 we know that when people do reach out \u2013 things get better. Our data shows that for people who enter formal treatment and support \u2013 and stay the course, their quality of life greatly improves and the harm caused by gambling is no longer a feature in their day-to-day lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gambling Harm Support SA funds a state-wide service system that includes face-to-face services in every State Government region.<\/p>\n<p>Gambling Help Online provides complementary national support, online chat and self-help resources, and the national 24\/7 gambling helpline (1800 858 858) is always available<\/p>\n<p>Further information is available online (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamblingharmsupport.sa.gov.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.gamblingharmsupport.sa.gov.au<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>\/\/SPONSORED CONTENT<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RECOGNISING the damage done early, and reaching out for support, are crucial to overcoming gambling harm for regional South Australians.
