Disassociated Persons List
To help those with gambling problem, the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB), with the assistance of Detroit's commercial casinos, have developed a list of Disassociated Persons, pursuant to Michigan law (MCL 432.225). Participation in the Disassociated Persons program is completely voluntary - no one but the voluntary participant may be added to the list. Persons placed on the list voluntarily may apply to change their status after five years and revoke their lifetime pledge to never visit a Detroit casino under Public Act 225 of 2020. You will find an application form to remove your name from the list here.
