This community-engaged research project unpacks some of the root causes of problem gambling in the Asian Community. The research was motivated by the desire to fill in the gap of understanding how problem gambling manifests in the Asian community and also to understand whether existing programs, services, and interventions are adequately serving this community. The findings of this research are important to inform prevention and early intervention efforts to support the Asian community, and avoid gambling harm at the personal, family, and community level.
