Start the conversation in your community group, senior living facility or school about prevention, responsible gambling, available resources and treatment options.
Our presentations cover problem gambling, gaming disorder and the connection between gambling addiction and other addictive behaviors. We also offer a responsible gambling toolkit for high schools to help educators and community leaders share these messages with young people. Customized presentations are available in person or virtually.

If gambling is causing financial stress for you or someone you care about, you don’t have to face it alone. The Minnesota Alliance on Problem Gambling partners with two no-cost financial counseling services, LSS Financial Counseling and GamFin, to help you take control—offering practical guidance, personalized budgeting support and strategies to rebuild financial stability and peace of mind. Whether you’re directly affected by problem gambling or supporting a loved one, expert counselors can help you find a clear path forward.

MNAPG offers no-cost individual subscriptions to Gamban, a self-exclusion tool that allows gamblers to block themselves from accessing thousands of online gambling sites. These one-year subscriptions can be used on up to 15 devices per household.

Community leaders are in a unique position to provide a positive influence on those in their community. Our free problem gambling awareness course helps community leaders in Minnesota educate and advocate for those in their community experiencing problem gambling. The two-part, six-hour course provides training related to gambling addiction, recovery options, and tools and resources to help others.
