Gambling, Gaming & Technology Use Community of Interest

The Gambling, Gaming & Technology Use Community of Interest brings together addiction and mental health service providers, researchers and subject matter experts in the fields of gambling, technology/Internet use and video gaming to collaborate and share knowledge on emerging trends and clinical best practices.

May 9th and 10th, 2019 ⃒ Downtown Toronto, Marriott Eaton Centre Hotel

This year’s Forum focus is “bringing together clinicians and community partners to reduce harms from gambling and gaming”.

Whether you have been supporting people with gambling problems for years or you are new to the field, changes in the gambling landscape, emerging technologies, the blurring of gaming and gambling, and new insights into concurrent disorders all indicate a need for updated approaches to treatment and engagement.  This year's forum will:

  • explore the relationship between gambling, gaming, mental health, cannabis, and the social determinants of health
  • highlight trends, promising interventions, and cross-sectoral approaches to treatment and harm reduction
  • provide opportunities for you to make connections with clinical and community-based colleagues from across the province.

This year's event is hosted by the Gambling, Gaming and Technology Use Knowledge Exchange at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health and Gambling Research Exchange Ontario.  For more information and to register, click here.
