NCPG Agility Grants
NCPG Agility Grants
National Council on Problem Gambling's Agility Grants provide funding to nonprofit organizations for problem gambling prevention programs. The goal of these grants is to fill in gaps for areas that currently have no such services, as well as bolster promising efforts in existing programs. The Agility Grant program will award more than $1 million over three years to establish and expand problem gambling prevention efforts nationwide.
County/state prevention programs cannot apply for the grant funding but our non-profit partners/colleagues can. It can be helpful to read about Agility Grantees' projects for examples of prevention work happening around the country.
