The World Lottery Association recertifies the Hoosier Lottery as highest-level recipient in responsible gaming
The Hoosier Lottery has once again received the highest level of distinction for responsible gaming by the World Lottery Association. Level 4 Certification is earned by lotteries that integrate responsible gaming into day-to-day operations and demonstrate continuous improvement in responsible gaming programs.
The Hoosier Lottery originally received Level 4 Certification in 2016 by the international organization. The renewed certification is valid through 2027. Lotteries who apply for this certification must go through a rigorous application process that includes extensive planning, program reflection and evaluation.
The World Lottery Association serves the interests of more than 1,502 state lotteries in 840 countries and six continents. Their principles acknowledge that gaming operators, among others, play an important role in helping to prevent problem gambling and ensure funds are generated for good causes.
"We are committed to operating in a socially responsible manner in all we do," said Sarah M. Taylor, executive director of the Hoosier Lottery. "Decisions surrounding games, marketing and advertising all involve best practices of responsible gaming. Our entire team's efforts to implement our comprehensive program earned us this Level 4 recertification and I am so proud of each employee."
