The 2018 Responsible Gaming Association of New Mexico's annual problem gambling conference will be held on Thursday and Friday, August 9-10, 2018 from 8:00am to 4:30pm each day. The event will be at Isleta Resort and Casino in Albuquerque.
The Responsible Gaming Association of New Mexico (RGANM) is a collaboration of many of the state’s Native American owned casinos, who work together to promote awareness of problem gambling and of the resources that are available across New Mexico.
The RGANM's annual conference is held for treatment providers and counselors, offering continuing education credits for their licensure and ongoing information about the treatment of individuals and their families. More than 400 treatment providers attend the annual conference, usually held the second week in August. Since the first conference in 1997, approximately 6000 people have attended the presentations from nationally and internationally recognized speakers on gambling, addiction and behavioral health.
This year's conference title is "Empowering Treatment with New Research Findings."
