Healthy Campus Summit

B-Healthy Summit

Problem Gambling: Awareness and action

Join B-Healthy and partners for a powerful program on November 12-13. Summit will feature personal stories, the latest research and a panel discussion on prevention and support strategies. More information to come! Register early on B-Engaged for reminders and upcoming panel information.

Problem gambling is preventable. Awareness is the first step! 
Learn about strategies, how gambling impacts students and how you can help build an environment where every student can thrive.

Why attend? 
Sports betting, online gaming and gambling apps are on the rise and the impact on college students is real. Gambling can affect academic success, mental health, finances and relationships. Students, faculty and staff all play a role in awareness and prevention. Together, we can build a healthier, more supportive campus community.
