Compulsive or Problem Gambling

While compulsive gambling is not as common or as easy to recognize, especially in its early stages, as other chemical or non-chemical addictions, it is real and it exacts very real consequences on individuals and families.  If you have a sense that you or someone you love might be struggling with compulsive or problem gambling, you can contact Olivia Hilerio at 865-637-9711 or Olivia.hilerio@mcnabb.org.  If you are interested in finding out more information about the care and treatment program offered through Helen Ross McNabb Center via the internet, you may also check out their website at http://www.mcnabbcenter.org/what_we_do/adultsvcs.htm and look for the paragraph titled, The Intensive Outpatient Program for Problem and Compulsive Gambling.
