Resources to Support Students Struggling with Gambling

Gambling has become more accessible, prevalent, and varied in the last two-decades. Accessibility via phone-apps, prevalence of advertisements in all forms of content makes it feel almost ubiquitous, and the rise of prediction markets has greatly expanded what people gamble on far beyond sporting events. College campuses are not immune from seeing our community members struggle navigating this complex situation.

Any student wishing to address any concerns they or a friend may have with gambling can seek confidential support through mental health and counseling 203-432- 0290.
