Help for RV Crews at Dakota Dunes
The help lines that cover Dakota Dunes Casino are Saskatchewan's own, since the casino sits in this province. Below, each line appears with its number and its role, beginning with 1-800-306-6789, the Saskatchewan Problem Gambling Helpline.

Two numbers to keep
The Saskatchewan Problem Gambling Helpline is reached at 1-800-306-6789. Calls are free, and trained counsellors answer them around the clock. What a caller says is kept in confidence. The line serves gamblers and their families alike, so a worried relative can call as well.
Gamblers Anonymous runs a separate hotline in Saskatchewan at 1-855-781-9522. It also answers 24 hours a day. Both numbers can be written on a card and kept in the RV, next to the SIGA Rewards card.
Counselling without a referral
Gambling counselling is offered through the Saskatchewan Health Authority. Saskatchewan residents pay nothing for it, and neither do their families. No referral from a doctor is needed to start. In practice, a crew member who lives in the province can ask for counselling directly, without first booking an appointment with a physician.
Barring entry by choice
Any SIGA casino, this one included, takes SIGA Voluntary Self-Exclusion requests; so does SIGA Central Office, 103 Aspen Place, Saskatoon, by appointment. The length is chosen by the person, between 6 months and 5 years. Throughout that term, the ban applies to all nine casinos in Saskatchewan. The request must come from the person being excluded: a spouse or travel partner cannot file it on their behalf.
SaskGaming operates Game Break as a second program. Joining is voluntary and confidential, a term runs 6 months at minimum and 5 years at most, and it applies to PlayNow.com and to all casinos in Saskatchewan. Once it takes effect, the term cannot be shortened. Neither program blocks private online sites. At SIGA casinos, anyone under 19 and anyone excluded or self-excluded falls under the term prohibited individual, and no winnings are paid to them.
A figure set before departure
This is general advice and not a fact about the casino: each casino game has a house edge. Across many visits, the losses of players as a group exceed their wins. A whole-trip budget set before the RV leaves home usually holds better than one chosen at a table. Writing the figure down before departure keeps it from shifting once the stall is hooked up.
Questions from the lot
Can a relative of a gambler use the provincial helpline?
Yes, the line at 1-800-306-6789, the Saskatchewan Problem Gambling Helpline, accepts calls from gamblers and from their family members too. It answers at any hour and costs nothing.
Is a doctor's note needed before counselling starts?
No referral is needed. Saskatchewan residents and their families get gambling counselling through the Saskatchewan Health Authority at no charge.
Does SIGA self-exclusion have to be requested by the person it covers?
Yes, only the person who wants to stay away can make the request. Nobody can put a partner or relative into SIGA Voluntary Self-Exclusion on their behalf.
