HELP LINE UPDATE
The Mississippi Council operates a help line for problem and compulsive gamblers which has received over 83,303 calls and helped over 10,551 gamblers, their families & friends since its inception. Over the past year we have noticed certain trends in the calls we have received for help. In an effort to learn more about compulsive gambling and those who suffer from this disorder, we have attempted to create a database of information from these calls. However, we recognize that some callers may be in such a state of crisis that the gathering of information is impossible.
