Peer Support
We know that recovery looks different for everyone.
Our Certified Recovery Gambling Mentors currently offer online groups:
Wednesday nights from 7:00 - 8:00 pm for female-identifying individuals seeking tools to work on their gambling challenges.
Sunday nights from 7:00 - 8:00 pm for anyone seeking tools related to disordered gambling, including affected others.
Please contact us for zoom links and more information under the “Contact” tab. There is no expectation that attendees are abstinent from gambling and you don’t necessarily need to be enrolled in our program to join.
Help. Support. Connection.
VPGR’s Help, Opportunity, Perseverance, and Education (HOPE) Program
VPGR’s HOPE program offers free personalized recovery support from Certified Gambling Recovery Mentors (CGRM’s) to those who seek out services within Multnomah County.
