Real Addiction, Real Recovery

The National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) is pleased to present the 7th Annual Problem Gambling Awareness Week campaign, a grassroots public awareness and outreach campaign. It will be held March 1-7, 2009.

The goal of this campaign is to educate the general public and health care professionals about the warning signs of problem gambling and raise awareness about the help that is available both locally and nationally.

The NCPG is the national advocate for programs and services to assist problem gamblers and their families.

Our research finds that 2%-3% of the US population will have a gambling problem in any given year. That’s 6 million to 9 million Americans yet only a small fraction seek out services, such as treatment and self-help recovery programs.

We hope that you will use these free materials to promote awareness of problem gambling, and more importantly, that there is hope and help for those who suffer from gambling problems.
