While less than 3% of the general population experience risky gambling or disordered gambling behaviors, only 3% with risky gambling behaviors ever seek mental health treatment for gambling and/or other co-occurring mental health concerns. What are we doing to support the 97% who never seek treatment? Are our prevention efforts reaching the 97%, which includes a new research trend to focus on emphasizing the self-management of risky gambling behaviors (Hodgins, Cunningham, & Murray, 2019); Matheson & Hamilton-Wright, 2019). Attend this session to update your prevention knowledge and skills using a diversity, equity, and inclusion framework focused on supporting the 97% before persons develop problem mental health distress.
