In 2019 OHA PGS funded counties to conduct a Problem Gambling Community Readiness Assessment (CRA) through interviews to determine the local level of Community Efforts, Community Knowledge of Efforts, Leadership, Community Climate, Community Knowledge of Issue and Resources Related to the Issue. These findings are a good place to start to look at strengths and areas for improvement in your county. The scores are often used for long term outcomes in our implementation plans. This assessment is being conducted again in 2025-26.
