2024-2025 Gambling Community Survey
The Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, Problem Gambling Services (PGS) would appreciate your assistance with this community survey on Gambling Behaviors in the Community. This information will help PGS understand the need for raising awareness about problem gambling in the public and the need for more education. Within this survey, there is also a series of questions that will give you an idea of whether you should consider your own level of gambling participation. All you need to do is complete this short questionnaire, which should take approximately 5 minutes. Responses will be completely anonymous; your name will not appear anywhere on the survey.
Gambling Education Resource Van!
The Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services partnered with MCCA to bring a new mobile resource van to Connecticut. The goal is to provide gambling education and resources to the public on prevention, treatment, recovery support services, and the voluntary self-exclusion portal. The van is available to attend trainings, events, health fairs, and other community gatherings across the state.
