Problem Gambling and
How it is Affecting Teens
Friday, May 23rd
2 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.

There are many different ways to gamble and often times, it is nearly impossible to identify a gambling problem in someone. Many times, it is believed that teenagers and children are not affected by gambling as you must be 18 or older to do so. However, there are signs to look out for and points to be made aware of with gambling.
This presentation will identify the different types of gambling, the impacts of gambling on others, and how easy it is for teens to gamble.
