[SCLA] Problem Gambling Resource Center Presentation -- September 28th (Virtual)

[Valerie Lewis]

Dear Library Colleagues, 

 

Please join us next Thursday, September 28th (via zoom) from 2:00 to 3:00pm,
for a presentation about the Problem Gambling Resource Center. 

Our guest speaker, Pamela Brenner-Davis, Team Leader at Long Island PGRC,
will explain how the expansion of casinos and the launch of mobile sports
betting its easier than ever to gamble  in New York State. Join the Long
Island Problem Gambling Resource Center for a discussion about types of
gambling going on in your communities and how Veterans, college students,
and young people are at high risk for developing a problem. We'll make sure
you learn how to spot a gambling problem and how to access help for anyone
impacted by problem gambling.

 

Please register on the Gateway.
