Our history
JARCA (Gamblers of Chance in rehabilitation of the Campo de Gibraltar) has been developing these activities for 25 years. Since 2009 it has been accredited as an outpatient treatment center for Pathological Gambling and other non-toxic addictions. Addressing problem gambling, addiction without substances, internet, mobile phones, compulsive shopping, social networks, as well as any behavior that is carried out compulsively, without control and is not toxic.
02
Teamwork
The basis of the treatment offered by the association is based on the Self-Help and Mutual-Help system. Which consists of group therapies, complemented by the professional work of the psychologist and social worker. Paying attention to both the person affected by this non-substance addiction and their closest family member who lives with the problem. Since this disease affects both the personal, family, couple, social, economic and work spheres. With the aim of recovering and improving the quality of life, reintegrating into society.
03
Prevention
JARCA also works to prevent these addictions without substances. For this year we plan to continue working with the highest risk groups. In this case, adolescents, since the age of initiation into gambling is younger. As well as the risks of inappropriate and increasingly early use of new technologies. Therefore, we have developed a project to carry out workshops in institutes and schools in the Campo de Gibraltar area.

October 29 day without gambling
And on the occasion of October 29, No Gambling Day, we have planned an outreach campaign for the prevention and awareness of non-toxic addictions. And one of the planned activities is to set up an information table on Saturday, October 26, 2019, on Regino Martínez Street in Algeciras, from nine in the morning. Where the press and different authorities such as the Mayor of Algeciras and the Ministry of Equality and Social Welfare are invited. We hope for the greatest possible dissemination and participation. Since due to cuts and scarce economic resources it is increasingly difficult to publicize our headquarters and the social work we carry out, needing the help of the media to make ourselves known.
October 29 Day without gambling
Jarca, celebrated this Saturday, October 26, 2018, the day without gambling. And like every year the board of directors, volunteers and users of our entity place an information table on Regino Martínez Street in Algeciras, to disseminate the work of our entity, and raise awareness among the population of the risks of abusive use. of games of chance.
