Tribute to Michael Burke

As our former executive director, Burke has been instrumental in raising awareness about the dangers of gambling addiction and advocating for expanded services to support those affected. His personal experience with gambling addiction, which led to his imprisonment, has fueled his dedication to helping others avoid similar pitfalls. Burke's efforts include promoting responsible gambling practices, providing education and resources to the community, and working with policymakers to ensure adequate support systems are in place. Through his advocacy and leadership, Burke has become a key figure in the fight against problem gambling in Michigan. Thank you for your enduring legacy, Michael Burke!

We’re also delighted to host an event, The Future of MAPG and a Tribute to Michael Burke, on March 5th, 2025, at the Hyatt Place Novi. Please inquire to jill@macgh.org for more information.
