This presentation aims to take a deep dive into SAMHSA’s Harm Reduction Framework to discuss how elements can be applied to supporting individuals who identify as having a problem with gambling. SAMHSA’s harm reduction framework contains six pillars, 12 principles, and six core practice areas. Although this framework was published primarily to address harms associated with people who use drugs (PWUD), it could be used a general outline in addressing harms associated with problem gambling.
