Behind every addiction is a story

In Amsterdam, many people struggle with addiction. Sometimes to alcohol or drugs. Sometimes to drugs, gambling or gaming. Or a combination thereof. Such an addiction can slowly take over life - contact with others becomes more difficult, the network smaller and the threshold to do something increasingly higher.

.

And this can happen to anyone. Whether you are young or older, practically or theoretically educated, male, female or something else - addiction knows no boxes.

What will you do?

As a volunteer with De Regenboog Groep, you will be paired with someone dealing with addiction. You will not be a social worker, but rather a buddy. Someone to meet for a cup of coffee, a walk, a game or to cook together. Just person to person.

"Doing something for a while that is not related to my addiction is golden."
