More about the report
This report looks at the gaming and gambling behaviours of over 38,000 BC youth aged 12–18 using data from the 2023 BC Adolescent Health Survey. The report is a response to rising concerns about underage gambling following legalization of single game sports betting for adults, combined with social media and in-game advertising of betting sites, and a rise in video games with gambling-style features. The report is available for download here. A PowerPoint of the findings is also available.
The YAC also created a poster for their 'Friends Helping Friends' series for gaming and gambling. This poster can be downloaded here.
