New Jersey Council on Compulsive Gambling

"When you can't get your drug of choice, you're going to reach out to something else — same thing with a gambler," said Neva Pryor, executive director of the Council on Compulsive Gambling of New Jersey.

Esports scholarships are being offered at nearly 200 colleges in the United States and Canada.

The New Jersey Lottery has teamed up with the Council on Compulsive Gambling to launch its annual The "Not 18 Yet? No Bet" awareness campaign.

Addicted gamblers may be tempted by the glitter and lure of big winnings from the big event.

Gov. Chris Christie has declared the month of March "Problem Gambling Awareness Month."
