In December, we launched a new website for 1-800-BETS-OFF.  If you are not familiar with the program, it was established by the Iowa Department of Public Health to reduce the harm that can be caused by problem gambling and also to educate about responsible gambling.

The new website is very simple.  It was redesigned to focus on getting people the help they need.  There is a quiz visitors can take to determine if they may be in need of help or getting close to needing help.

And, because video is such a popular communication tool, we’ve produced a video that explains what happens when you make that call.  The purpose is to make people feel more comfortable about taking that first step towards recovery.

Please review the new website and let us know your thoughts.
