Last week, Zepf Center’s Gambling Treatment Team joined forces with the Ohio Casino Control Commission to make a real impact!

Allison Huss from Zepf partnered with Nabil Pervaiz, Problem Gambling Services Program Specialist, to bring QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) su***de prevention training to employees at Hollywood Casino Toledo.

Together, we’re raising awareness about the connection between gambling disorder and su***de risk, equipping staff with the tools to recognize warning signs and help save lives.

During the visit, our team was also presented with a generous donation in honor of Responsible Gaming Education Month. Special thanks to Hollywood Casino for their ongoing commitment to safe and responsible play!
