March marks Problem Gambling Awareness Month, and we coordinated a panel discussion with three remarkable leaders who are shaping how Illinois responds to problem gambling.

We're joined by Anita Pindiur, executive director of The Way Back Inn, Heather Martinez from the Illinois Council on Problem Gambling, and Emma Bowen from Chestnut Health Systems. We'll explore why March has become such a pivotal month for awareness, what's happening across the state, as well as some surprising insights from communities grappling with expanded gambling.
