Digital Symposium: Leveraging Youth Identity and Resilience – Amplifying the Impact of Problem Gambling Prevention Programs
Apr 17 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm

This Digital Symposium Session will explore the development of effective prevention and education programs to address problem gambling among youth and young adults. As exposure to gambling continues to increase, young people are at a heightened risk of developing gambling-related problems, often accompanied by co-occurring mental health and behavioral disorders. The symposium brings together experts to share evidence-based strategies aimed at reducing gambling-related harm, with a particular focus on the role of emotional regulation skills in prevention.

Sessions will examine the links between emotional dysregulation, coping strategies, and problem gambling severity, and how targeted interventions may help mitigate risk. Additionally, the event will highlight the importance of culturally responsive programs that consider the diverse identities and experiences of young adults. The event aims to equip attendees with practical tools and insights to develop more effective, tailored programs for preventing problem gambling in youth and young adults.
