Attendees will continue to explore the ever-changing field of gambling-related harm, highlighting emerging trends and best practices. Participants will explore emotional intelligence, universal behaviors and the impact they have on the workplace/recovery. Presentations will focus on the continuum of care including prevention, treatment, and recovery for gambling related harm & Gambling Disorder. We will explore considerations for designing programs to continue to reduce barriers, create connections and encourage change.
