The Maryland Center of Excellence on Problem Gambling presents

There’s No Better Time to Gift Responsibly

 

December is the season for festive celebrations, generosity and family gatherings. Every December, the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), lotteries across the Country, and community organizations promote gifting lottery tickets responsibly for the holiday season. Year round, The Center collaborates with the MLGCA and community organizations to promote responsible gambling, including underage gambling prevention. Join us for an interactive webinar to learn of strategies implemented by MLGCA and the Center to prevent underage gambling and promote responsible gambling within your organization and your community.

 

Participants will be able to: 

• Learn about youth gambling and the risks of gambling at a young age.
• Learn what MLGCA does to promote the Gift Responsibly campaign and prevent underage gambling during the holidays and year-round. 
• Learn about underage and problem gambling prevention strategies for youth that have been implemented in Maryland over the last few years through the Center’s prevention grant programs.
• Utilize resources and tools for awareness within the 2025 Holiday Awareness Guide for Behavioral Health Providers and Preventionists.
