Author(s): Whiteside, Mary ; Heyeres, Marion ; Maltzahn, Kathleen ; Griffin, Tiffany ; Maclean, Sarah

Journal: SAGE Open

Year Published: 2020

Date Added: October 20, 2020

This article is a review of research studies of intervention for Indigenous people to prevent or address gambling harm. The authors found only four articles. Two described programs for Māori women in New Zealand. One article described three health promotion programs for Indigenous people in Australia. One article examined the impact of an Australia government policy and was the only article that provided some outcome data. At present, there is a lack of evidence to guide gambling intervention for Indigenous people. The authors highlighted the need for more research in this area. They summarized some of the key principles from the programs that they reviewed.
