FOR COMPULSIVE GAMBLERS
AND THEIR FAMILIES
Compulsive gambling is a
treatable disease... not a disgrace.
It is a PROGRESSIVE disease
that CAN be arrested.
THERE IS HELP AVAILABLE!
Compulsive gamblers, in the grip of this disease, feel trapped
and helpless. They often make promises -- to themselves and others
-- that they will stop, but they continue to gamble. Will power alone
does not work.
But there is hope!
Many compulsive gamblers ask for help only after they have exhausted all means to stay "in action." In many cases, they will have lost their home, business, family, friends, self esteem. They may have legal issues. These problems may seem overwhelming.
But there is help!
They can stop gambling, regain their self-esteem and, once again, earn the trust and love of family and friends. Treatment is available from trained and certified counselors who understand this addiction. There is also the 12 step program of Gamblers Anonymous for continued support. Through these resources, compulsive gamblers can return to a normal life.
The Arizona Council on Compulsive Gambling, Inc. (ACCG) is not in the treatment business, nor receives any proceeds from referrals. We are here because we care about the gamblers and their families who still suffer. Call the ACCG,- a nonprofit and charitable organization.
