Feature Story: Gambling Awareness Program

The Gambling Awareness Program (provided by the Canadian Mental Health Association Saskatchewan Division) is a free provincial program that provides services in many towns and communities across Saskatchewan. GAP helps to educate communities and groups about the facts and risks associated with gambling, and offers a closer look at how technology has begun to blur the lines between gambling and video gaming.

As gambling opportunities continue to increase and youth are especially more exposed to gambling opportunities than ever before, GAP is committed to helping educate kids, parents, teachers and school administrators on gambling and gaming trends, how to keep it safe, and building resiliency among youth.
