Problem: Australia has a gambling problem. Access to gambling is on the increase, but access to gambling addiction treatment isn't. Solution: Rather than create an awareness campaign we created a social media treatment program called the 100 Day Challenge. The program was designed to help gamblers change their lives over 100 days. Participants became a part of an online community support group, who provided inspiration. They could also recruit supporters and access one-on-one counseling. Results: 16% of all problem gamblers have taken part. Awareness is at 56% amongst the target market. 25% of problem gamblers shared the campaign socially.
