Happy Summer, Long Island!
We hope that you are staying cool and enjoying all that Long Island has to offer in the summer.
A HUGE thank you goes out to The Nassau County Heroin Prevention Task Force for hosting the Long Island PGRC as a part of their ongoing education series, on July 16th. LIPGRC staff members Diana Reuter and Pam Brenner-Davis presented information about Problem Gambling, emerging trends, and the impacts of COVID-19, as well as the ongoing changes to NYS legislation. If you missed the training and would like to host this virtual event in our own organization, please contact Pam at LongIslandPGRC@nyproblemgambling.org
We are grateful to our partners for sharing out information about the PGRC and bringing care to those in need. As our program grows, we are looking to expand our network of Problem Gambling Treatment Specialists across Nassau and Suffolk Counties. We are seeking clinicians in private practice who are interested in helping those with a gambling disorder. NYCPG provide free training, clinical supervision, assistance with claims, and professional development.
We look forward to partnering with all of you!
