VICB

VICB (Verslavingszorg, Informatie & Coaching Bureau) provides information, guidance and coaching for people affected by addiction. Its support is intended for people currently experiencing addiction, those in recovery, family members and others close to them. Recognizing that addiction affects entire families and social networks, VICB helps relatives understand addiction, gain perspective on their situation and find practical ways to respond. The bureau also offers guidance in identifying suitable treatment and support, coaching for people in recovery, and help with the wider effects of addiction.

VICB addresses challenges related to alcohol, drugs, gambling, gaming, medication and eating disorders. Its website provides information about the organization’s approach, intake, aftercare, family support, clinic admission, costs and registration. The bureau states that it offers direct help without waiting times. Home-based support is available in the area between ’s-Hertogenbosch, Tilburg and Eindhoven, while telephone advice and support are offered throughout the Netherlands. VICB invites people seeking help, or wanting to support someone else, to get in touch for guidance tailored to their situation.
