Establishes public awareness campaign concerning risks of gambling and resources available to compulsive gamblers; appropriates $200,000.
S 2336 requires New Jersey's Division of Gaming Enforcement, working with the Health Commissioner, to create a public awareness campaign about gambling risks and resources for people struggling with gambling addiction. The campaign must cover gambling risks, consequences, addiction rates, and available help, using media like TV, radio, social media, and newspapers within 180 days of the bill's enactment. The state will appropriate $200,000 from the General Fund to fund this campaign and requires a report on its progress to the Governor and Legislature within 24 months. This bill directly affects all New Jersey residents by making this information widely accessible through official state channels.
