Nevada Council on Problem Gambling

The Nevada Council on Problem Gambling is a nonprofit organization dedicated to generating awareness, promoting education, and advocating for quality treatment and support resources for problem gambling in Nevada. The organization serves up to 6% of Nevada adults who may have a gambling problem. They provide a 24-hour Problem Gambling HelpLine at 1-800-GAMBLER for confidential support and resource referral. The council operates a Resource Locator to connect individuals to treatment and support services across Nevada, many of which are free for problem gamblers and their family members. Since 1998, they have partnered with the gaming industry through their "When the Fun Stops" program, which provides informational brochures and employee training on responsible gambling. The council also hosts the annual Nevada State Conference on Problem Gambling for professional development and networking.
