RESPONSIBLE GAMING
For the vast majority of our guests, gambling, when done responsibly, is an enjoyable entertainment experience. However, we also realize that a small segment of our population cannot gamble responsibly. Intrepid Gaming is concerned about this issue, and as a responsible community member, is dedicated to educating our guests and the public about gambling disorders, pathological and youth gambling as well as the warning signs and help available for those who need it.
Should you or someone you know need assistance with a gambling problem, call (702) 898-7777 or visit www.ncrg.org. The National Center for Responsible Gaming is a valuable resource for education and help with issues concerning problem gambling. They offer information, advancing research, education and awareness in an effort to understand the problem and get help if it’s needed. You can also get more information on National and Nevada State councils near you by visiting the Resources Link below.
