Gamblers Anonymous Twenty Questions

Gamblers Anonymous (GA) is a group that helps people share their experiences, support, and hope to stop gambling and build better lives. The 12-step program creates a safe space to discuss gambling and abstinence experiences. The GA uses twenty questions to self-test for new members.
