It started from the state asking community service boards to address the issues of gambling. Locally, the organizations have taken a regional approach.
That’s why the Danville-Pittsylvania Community Services Board, Southside Behavioral Health and Piedmont Community Services have united to serve localities spanning Southern Virginia.
“I think initially that goal is to increase that awareness, because I think a lot of people don’t realize how much gambling is available,” Dominick Grembi, prevention program manager at Danville-Pittsylvania Community Services, told the Register & Bee.
