In recognition of National Problem Gambling Awareness Month, Wager Danger travelled to Waukegan to attend and capture highlights from Dr. Adell’s personal story “Confessions of a Slot Machine Queen.” 

A jointly sponsored event between Northern Illinois Recovery Community Organization (NIRCO) and Nicasa Behavioral Health Services, Dr. Mary Robison at NIRCO and Elizabeth Thielan at Nicasa also join our conversation to share why these grassroots community events are so important.
