Given the rapidly-evolving situation with COVID-19, we wanted to take this opportunity to update you on the measures and precautions we are taking at this time, and to reassure you that the Florida Council on Compulsive Gambling (FCCG) will continue to provide uninterrupted problem gambling specific help and resources through our 24/7 confidential, multilingual 888-ADMIT-IT HelpLine, through live chat on our website, or through HelpLine text at (321) 978-0555.
We, as a nation, have taken care to implement recent protective measures in response to COVID-19. These recent social changes can increase stress, both physically and mentally, and the FCCG will continue to be at the forefront of supporting the mental health of our community at this time. Our long history of leveraging technology to enable 24/7 problem gambling HelpLine supports has enabled thousands of Floridians access to important help and resources for more than two decades. We are confident in our ability to continue to provide all of the necessary problem gambling related programs, services, resources, and supports, to all key stakeholders without disruption during this challenging and changing environment.
