Source and advice boundary
NCPG lists current national help access through 1-800-MY-RESET, Text 800GAM and online chat. This hub routes to owner pages and official resources; it does not replace crisis support, state agencies, licensed treatment providers, attorneys, tax professionals or financial professionals.
How this responsible gambling cluster is maintained
- Help-routing language is checked against current NCPG routes.
- Self-check and warning-sign pages avoid diagnosis, scoring, and treatment claims.
- Financial pages avoid legal, tax, insolvency, credit-repair, and product advice.
- State and external-program pages are treated as source-routing pages, not directories.
- FAQ and glossary pages stay short so they do not replace owner pages.
- Search Console overlap should be reviewed after publication to keep each page focused on its own intent.
