Community Outreach in Central Illinois | Problem Gambling Service Providers Share their Insights
Manage episode 407108483 series 3557804
Gambling disorder service providers sit down with Wager Danger to discuss their approach to community outreach and treatment for problem gambling. We explore topics that include:
- The intense shame that sometimes prevents men from seeking assistance with problem gambling, and the resulting observation that women are more likely to complete the program.
- How young people are at increased risk to gambling disorder.
- How telehealth breaks down the barriers to treatment and screening tools that help facilitate the access to treatment options.
