The Association of State Lotteries, Quinielas and Casinos (ALEA) signed a collaboration agreement with the Secretary of Comprehensive Drug Policies of the Argentine Nation (SEDRONAR) to coordinate actions aimed at the promotion of care, prevention, and assistance in the field of problematic consumption and behavioral addictions.
The agreement was signed by the president of ALEA, Ida López, and the secretary of SEDRONAR, Roberto Esteban Moro, with the presence of Jorge Manzo, president of the Lottery for Social Action Works of the province of Rio Negro.
Regarding this, Ida López said: "The idea of the agreement is to generate joint actions and exchange information to be able to carry out training, awareness, and prevention campaigns for pathological gambling as one of the behavioral addictions originated by gambling."
This action is added to a comprehensive campaign carried out by ALEA to prevent pathological and illegal gambling from various institutions such as the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic, participations in informative meetings on the subject in the Chamber of Deputies of the Nation, and national media campaigns.
