Advocate. Educate. Promote Recovery.
VPGR's mission is to speak for those affected by problem gambling through advocacy, education, and promoting recovery.
Voices of Problem Gambling Recovery believes that problem gambling is not a bad habit or a moral weakness. It is a psychological and neurochemical condition—and that problematic gambling behaviors can be changed.
We are an organization devoted to extending a hand towards those who are striving for recovery.

We are here to share our experience:
Please contact us for a member of our Speakers’ Bureau to share their lived experience with gambling harm.
And if you, yourself, have been affected by gambling and interested in talking with the media, legislature, or your community about your story, we welcome new members and offer regular trainings and support.
