Individuals in central Ohio with a gambling problem will have more treatment options thanks to the Franklin County ADAMH Board, which is providing $466,000 to expand programs at Maryhaven dealing with problem gambling.

As the number of gambling facilities in Ohio has expanded in recent years, so have the opportunities for at-risk individuals to develop a gambling problem. This new funding will enable Maryhaven to help more Ohioans and their families.
