We provide support to children affected by problem gambling in the Las Vegas, Nevada region. Numerous youngsters from this demographic end up in local shelters, primarily due to the significant link between problem gambling and occurrences of domestic violence. Regrettably, a considerable number of these children are left without adequate assistance, as the existing problem gambling programs focus exclusively on individuals aged 21 and above. Additionally, these children face challenges in qualifying for essential resources such as food, sports equipment, and counseling support, as their parents’ employment often exceeds the income thresholds set by assistance programs. Despite their parents’ substantial earnings, the financial strain created by the problem gambler often leads to cash flow difficulties.
