Youth Have the Power is now LIVE!
Parents and involved adults compete with many obstacles in raising healthy children. There is an endless supply of outside influences, and it can be difficult to prioritize the life lessons we wish to impart on our youth. Plenty of resources and information exist to help guide us, but there can be a lot of uncertainty in knowing what to use. Many adults believe that educating young people on gambling harms is unnecessary if they can’t legally access gambling, but the reality is that risk factors for problem gambling can start very early in life. At ECPG, we’re proud to introduce a new program that aims to bridge this gap in youth prevention – Youth Have the Power.
