Problem Gambling Professionals

Gambling options in Kansas are more numerous than ever, while the consequences of problem gambling are significant and under-recognized. It is estimated that 1% of adults are pathological gamblers, and about 3% are problem gamblers. In Kansas, that would include 84,000 adults. Problem gambling is estimated to cost society about $7 billion each year, including bankruptcies, divorce, crime and job loss. For this reason, it is important to have trained problem gambling professionals available and ready to offer assistance.
