Support for gambling problems in Argentina is organised mainly by provinces. Several provincial lottery institutes run free assistance programmes for compulsive gambling with counselling for players and families; Buenos Aires Province, for example, runs a free telephone line for problematic digital consumption, including online betting. Nationally, SEDRONAR's 141 line offers free, confidential guidance on addictions, and public hospitals provide mental health care. Jugadores Anónimos meets in many cities. Concern about teenagers betting online has driven a wave of school-based prevention campaigns since 2024, and families can attend provincial programmes in their own right.
