Dutch Regulator Calls on Parents to Warn Kids About Gambling Risks

The Netherlands’ regulator Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) has launched two new campaigns that are aimed at raising awareness around problem gambling in young adults. A still from the OpenOverGokken campaign, which urges adults to have open conversations about the risks of gambling with young adults.

The second promotes Gokstop, the Netherlands' gambling self-exclusion program. Both campaigns will launch in early November and aim to make conversations about gambling less difficult.
