Luck has nothing to do with it
How addiction can impact young lives and how the choices we make matter.
We invited David Schwarz to present his story to our students’. David’s lived experience captured the students’ attention; they actively listened and their facial expressions at key moments of his talk showed they took in the information as David covered some very low points in his life as a direct result of his gambling. The high volume of student questions that followed showed they retained information and developed a deeper understanding of the social problems and consequences associated with gambling.
