How can we help?

It’s OK to ask for help.

As a parent/carer, you have an important role in supporting your child’s drug or alcohol related need. We can help you understand alcohol and drugs and their effects and support you to talk to your children.

The Matrix team is here to listen and help. We can answer your questions, help you understand what drugs and alcohol are, and support you if you are feeling worried, upset, or confused.

Everything you tell us is private, and we will always treat you with kindness and respect. You can talk to us on the phone or meet with one of our workers in person.

Even if your young person is not ready to get help themselves, we can still support parents or carers and help them find the best way forward.
