\u201cWhile the pandemic forced this year\u2019s National Conference on Gambling Addiction and Responsible Gambling to be online again, the quality of the programming is as comprehensive and thought-provoking as ever,\u201d said Keith Whyte, executive director of NCPG. \u201cWe picked the theme of \u2018Embracing Change Together\u2019 because the unprecedented wave of gambling expansion requires collaboration between all the stakeholders to properly address problem gambling. Registering for NCPG\u2019s National Conference is a good step in the journey to achieve that important objective.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now in its 35th iteration, the conference is the oldest and largest annual National Conference that brings together people from all facets of healthcare, research, government and the gambling industry. With top-notch state, national and international experts as speakers, the conference is a unique resource for everybody who works in these fields, as well as those in recovery and concerned others. Attendees will earn up to 32 continuing education credits; approval has been requested from the Association for Addiction Professionals (NAADAC) and the International Gambling Counselor Certification Board (IGGCB).<\/p>\n
