A-Clinic Foundation

The A-Clinic Foundation is a Finnish non-governmental organisation providing addiction treatment and support services, including services relating to gambling problems.

The foundation is one of the principal providers of treatment and support for gambling harm in Finland and is involved in delivering national help services in the field.

Its relevance to the licensed market is practical: the Act requires licence holders to monitor players for harmful play and to intervene, and intervention pathways lead to services of this kind. Operators building Finnish responsible gambling processes will need to know which services exist and how referral is expected to work.
