Background/History
CAMP was launched officially on 21st April 2001. Its aim is to provide treatment for individuals with various addictions, including substance behavioural addictions (e.g. compulsive gambling, sex addiction and internet addiction). The good news is that people DO recover from addictions. Recovery begins with the desire to change, and the person is more likely to recover with the right support. CAMP has a multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, psychologists and counselors who can help. CAMP also works with numerous government and community based agencies to provide consultation and referral services.
