Helping someone in distress

The Commission has developed a new resource containing information on how to assist people who may be experiencing mental health, alcohol and other drug issues. The Helping someone in distress booklet contains advice on how to respond to situations and a directory of helpline services available.

Alcohol and your health

Regularly drinking more than two standard drinks increases your risk of alcohol-caused cancer, stroke and heart attack. Our new online tool can help you reduce your risk and save money and kilojoules. 

Know what you're getting into
