LOTERJ president announces planned gambling addiction treatment centre
LOTERJ president Hazenclever Lopes Cançado announced a planned treatment centre for people with gambling addiction at BiS Brasília 2025. He said the project, developed under Governor Cláudio Castro’s guidance, will include prevention, self-exclusion and psychological counselling; he also criticised a court ruling limiting Loterj-licensed companies to operating within Rio de Janeiro state.
The planned centre would add prevention and treatment support for people affected by gambling addiction in Rio de Janeiro.
