About this event

  • 7 hours 30 minutes

Join us for an impactful event dedicated to raising awareness about problem gambling within the Asian community. Together we hope to address stigmas, break down barriers to treatment and understanding of Problem Gambling, and find new ways to connect and come together as one community to better serve the Asian Population in Illinois when it comes to mental health and problem gambling concerns.


This event is open to all counselors, mental health providers, community leaders, and those genuinely interested in learning more about how we can come together as one community to better serve those in Illinois.
