LOTTERY RESOURCES NOVEMBER 2018 RESPONSIBLE GAMING Holiday Season Reminder: Lottery tickets are not appropriate gifts for individuals under the age of 18. What does gift responsibly mean? Lottery players must be 18 years old to purchase, play, or claim any Lottery ticket wins. Remember, it is not appropriate to gift Lottery merchandise to individuals under 18. During the holiday season players and retailers will see gift responsibly messaging on the Lottery s communication channels in promotion of the annual National Holiday campaign. Each year the Lottery joins the National Council on Problem Gambling and McGill University s International Centre for Youth Gambling Problems and High-Risk Behaviors to discourage the gifting of lottery tickets to minors, while raising awareness of youth gambling. Research shows that youth gambling can lead to more severe gambling disorders later in life, and it has been linked to other addictive behaviors. The Lottery s Gift Responsibly campaign is part of its responsible gaming program that strives to uphold the highest standards for the sale of its products. The Lottery was the first in the country to receive the highest responsible gaming certification and recertification from the World Lottery Association for its responsible gaming programs. The Lottery also promotes the statewide Problem Gambling Helpline (1-800-GAMBLER) on its products and communication channels. For more information on the NCPG s Holiday Campaign please visit http://www.ncpgambling.org/programs-resources/programs/holiday-lottery-campaign/. 2
