GET THE WORD OUT! Gamblers Anonymous has but one primary purpose - to carry its message to the compulsive gambler who still suffers.
Gamblers Anonymous PR committee of Toronto Intergroup is thrilled to announce that our first Public Service Announcement (PSA) is ready for airing and distribution!
November 19-25 is National Addiction Week in Canada and we want to GET THE WORD OUT!
We are working diligently to get this PSA on all local TV stations! In the meantime, please feel free to post this video to all Social Media, School & Church Websites, Facebook groups, etc.
Public Relations is interested in hearing your ideas on how to "get the word out". Please email your suggestions to: pr@gatoronto.ca
Thanks. Lu R.
