Save The Date For The 14th Annual NCRG Conference On Gambling And Addiction
Changes in health care policies and mental health diagnostic codes are driving a larger conversation about what recovery and prevention should include for those with addictive disorders. From the Affordable Care Act to the American Psychiatric Association’s DSM-5, these changes impact how researchers study gambling disorders, how the industry builds responsible gaming programs to educate their patrons, and how clinicians relate to their clients.
In less than six months, stakeholders in the field of gambling disorders and responsible gaming will come together at the14th annual NCRG Conference on Gambling and Addictionto discuss what these changes in the mental health space mean for communities. This year, the conference will take place Sept. 22-24, 2013 at The Sands Expo and Convention Center at the Venetian Las Vegas.
The 2013 NCRG Conference will examine these issues by discussing the latest and most relevant research on gambling disorders, co-occurring disorders and responsible gaming. Conference sessions will examine how the Affordable Care Act and DSM-5 will impact treatment options, the effectiveness of evidence-based self-help recovery resources, the neurobiology of gambling disorders and the effectiveness of responsible gaming programs — both in person and online.
