NYS Problem Gambling Prevention Media Literacy Program

In 2015, the Council continued with the problem gambling prevention initiative, especially by sponsoring the New York Council on Problem Gambling’s “YOU(th) Decide” Campaign, with special focus on (1) Presentations to Youth; (2) Youth Survey; (3) Media Literacy; and (4) Policy/Event Advocacy. This program is run by the five county Education Coordinators who report to the Director of Programs for support, supervision, and reporting. The Director of Programs reports all outcomes and budgets to the New York Council on Problem Gambling.
