2. Twelve-step recovery support: Gambler’s Anonymous is a twelve-step organization for problem gamblers, operating on principles similar to AA and other such organizations. Gam-Anon is the organization for the family members of problem gamblers. GA and Gam-Anon meetings are not as widespread as other twelve-step programs, so interested persons should call the Problem Gambling Help Line to verify meeting status.
