The Northwest ATTC and the Evergreen Council on Problem Gambling (ECPG) are offering 3 workshops on Problem Gambling Integration this May, June, and July 2024.

This is session #3: SWOT Analysis of Problem Gambling/Gaming Integration 

This session is the last of the series and it may be taken on its own. This workshop intends to provide attendees with a thorough analysis of everything they need to know if they are considering integrating problem gambling/gaming in peer work or treatment work through an existing behavioral health program. It will also focus on what is within the scope of peers, general SUD/MH counselors, or specialists for gambling/gaming disorders. The SWOT analysis will address the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (i.e., challenges) of PG/G integration.

Learning Objectives:

• Explore strengths of integrating gambling/gaming treatment and peer work into behavioral health programming, and discuss commonalities with the work of your peer colleagues
• Explore weaknesses of integrating gambling/gaming treatment and peer work into behavioral health programming, and explore specific ethical scenarios around peer work
• Explore opportunities of integrating gambling/gaming treatment and peer work into behavioral health programming, and gain skills practice to conduct screening and referrals to specialty care
