In this episode we welcome Pam Brenner-Davis, Director, Bureau of Prevention and Special Programs. Pam joins us to discuss College & Young Adult. Questions that are discussed include:

• How has your work lead you to this topic and population?
• What lead partnering universities to focus on the topic of problem gambling for the college population?
• Why do you believe this population is at a higher risk?
• What does that higher risk look like and what can it lead to?
• What strategies are you using to reach students on a college campus, and are those strategies working?
• What information are we gathering form college campuses now that will influence our work in the future (not worded exactly)
• Are there any upcoming trainings or webinars that you’d like to promote?
• Is there any specific way that people can get involved in our efforts to prevent gambling harms on college campus?

If you find yourself struggling with gambling harm, or if you suspect someone you know is facing such challenges, don’t hesitate to seek help.
