Wednesday is Problem Gambling Advocacy Day8 April 2019(PRESS RELEASE) -- The National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) will meet with stakeholders from across the country on Capitol Hill for Problem Gambling Advocacy Day this Wednesday, 10 April. The briefing will review and celebrate the efforts of the bi-partisan sponsors of the Preventing and Treating Gambling Disorder in the Military Act. This common sense bill improves military morale and readiness among active-duty military personnel and their dependents, as well as reduces health expenses and security risks at no cost to taxpayers. Additional NCPG legislative priorities are to improve gambling treatment services for veterans; provide state grants for gambling research and treatment; and expand addiction diversion courts for gambling. Panelists include: Randy Livingston, former NBA player; Stephen Crosby, Founding Chair of the Massachusetts Gaming Commission; and Marlene Warner, NCPG President. The briefing will be moderated by Keith Whyte, Executive Director of NCPG.
