What happened
The Responsible Gaming Foundation hosted the free webinar on 6 October 2026. Experts from the Responsible Gambling Council, Lisa Couperus and Jennifer Reynolds, presented evidence-based approaches to youth gambling prevention.
Who it was for
The session was aimed at families and educators, the adults most likely to notice early signs that a young person is gambling or is being drawn towards it, whether through betting apps, in-game purchases or sports.
Why it matters
Young people meet betting through gaming, social media and sports sponsorship long before they can legally gamble. Prevention tends to work best when the adults around them can spot warning signs and feel comfortable starting the conversation early.
