Lackawanna County Problem Gambling Webinar:
Co-Occurring Disorders – Gambling, Mental Health & Substance Use

Today, more people have access to, and are participating in, gambling activities than ever before. While most people are able to gamble without developing any issues, there are a small percentage who are unable to maintain responsible levels of play.  Unfortunately for these individuals, this often progresses to a point where several areas of their lives are impacted in a negative way.

During this program participants will learn about the problem and how it develops, the overlap between gambling, mental health and substance use disorders, and what resources are available in Pennsylvania.
