What’s New:
Hello Long Island !
We would like to congratulate Well Life Network for obtaining their gambling waiver that will be utilized within their outpatient program sites. Well Life takes a proactive stance on gambling addiction and believes in the mission of the PGRC. We are fortunate to have such a strong partnership with this organization. We understand that each individual is different with regard to the level of support needed in recovery. Well Life Network opens another door that helps connect our community to care.
Our annual NYCPG conference was a hit! We had 560 attendees a great turn out for our first virtual conference. We received a wealth of information covering topics such as gambling & trauma, rebuilding marriage & the family through recovery, the importance of language in recovery etc. You can find conference materials HERE. Thank you to everyone from the Long Island Region who attended our event!
Lastly, we would like to welcome Gilbert Cruceta, our newest clinician from Babylon NY! Gilbert is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), who has a passion for helping others and giving them “a place to start”.
