About NCPG The national advocate for programs and services to assist problem gamblers and their families. NEUTRAL on legalized gambling. Founded in 1972. National grassroots non-profit with chapters in 36 of 50 states (incl. WA) Work with government, gaming industry & community.

Core Programs Helpline Number (800.522.4700) & Network Nat’l Problem Gambling Awareness Week Annual Conference on Problem Gambling Prevention, Treatment, Research & Recovery (June 26-28, Long Beach, CA) Public Awareness & Media Certification Administration ADVOCACY!

Roles of Councils ONLY advocates for problem gamblers & their families. Independent perspective, unaffected by money or morality. Innovative service delivery better, faster & cheaper. Hub of information-work toward best practices. Work across the many boundaries, including: State (MSA’s, gambling on borders) Tribal Types of gambling (different regulatory agencies)

What Can Regulators Do? What is the appropriate role in RG & PG? Set standards. Enforce regulations. Provider of last resort? Three approaches to develop best practices: legislation, regulation or litigation.

PG Issues for Regulators PG is difficult & complex health issue. Only ½ states provide public funding for PG services. Regulators as providers of last resort? Most jurisdictions without strategy on problem gambling (or gambling). But basic consensus on prevalence, risk factors, consequences and treatment—no excuse for inaction.

RG Issues for Regulators Public access to data. Helplines (9-1-1 system). Duty of Care undefined in most statutes. Technology radically changes gaming (bingo). Maximize benefit while minimizing harm.

Instant Ticket Vending Machines Most in non-age restricted locations Continues to spread in at least 20 states Lessons from tobacco vending machines?

RG Machine Modifications Based on Research & Player Data What operational modification most likely to be effective—for PGs?—for RGs? Limiting bill acceptors? No impact for either Capping max bet size? Likely helpful for PG Slowing speed of play? Likely harmful for PG!!!!
