The 3rd Annual African American Conference on Problem Gambling is a one-day gathering focused on addressing the unique challenges and impact of problem gambling within the African American community in Illinois.

The African American community has been identified as an under-resourced population in the state. This conference is dedicated to bridging gaps in education, access, and culturally responsive support by fostering dialogue, shared learning, and connection.
