S 2363 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires employees of gambling and addiction related State entities to participate in problem gambler training program.

S 2363 requires public-facing employees at specific New Jersey state entities - including the Casino Control Commission, State Lottery, Racing Commission, Gaming Enforcement Division, and Mental Health Services - to complete a state-developed training program on supporting problem gamblers. The training, created by the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services with input from gaming and gambling advocacy groups, teaches staff to respond empathetically, provide accurate resource information, and guide patrons through self-exclusion processes. It applies to all employees who interact with the public at these gambling- or addiction-related agencies. The program may be updated periodically as best practices for addressing gambling addiction evolve.
