People in recovery from gambling addiction face unique challenges as they enter and maintain recovery. As gambling opportunities expand within the Commonwealth, so will the needs for recovery support services for people with gambling addiction. This workshop will discuss and explore strategies for supporting recovery, as well as how to integrate awareness of problem gambling within the existing structure of recovery support services. Panelists will provide a firsthand account of problem gambling and support services they have integrated into their programs.
