Each of their designs will be used in a variety of ways to promote the North Carolina Problem Gambling Program through the Nash Community College Student Wellness Center.

Seventy-five percent of college students report gambling in the past month, and six percent will develop a gambling problem. NCC’s Student Wellness Center is working with the North Carolina Problem Gambling Program and the NC Department of Health & Human Services, Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services to increase awareness about problem gambling.
