RSI’s GLAD Initiative In Partnership With IC360 Aims to Give Educators the Tools to help Teens Make Informed Decisions about Gaming

CHICAGO, May 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rush Street Interactive (NYSE: RSI), in partnership with Integrity Compliance 360 (IC360), has launched a new initiative called Gaming Literacy Aiding Decisions (GLAD), an innovative program designed to assist educators in enhancing high school student gaming literacy and promoting that cohort’s responsible relationship with this ever more socially prevalent activity.

“Consumers today have more entertainment options than ever before, including within the gaming space,” said Richard Schwartz, RSI CEO. “We appreciate that this expanded landscape offers individuals more ways to fulfill their entertainment needs. As technology continues to evolve, entertainment options, such as online gambling, have become increasingly mainstream and accessible. Like any material societal change, this evolution requires thoughtful education and honest, open dialogue - particularly for youth who are coming of age in an environment where these choices are all around them. I’ve seen this first hand with young people in my own community. It’s clear that exposure is growing, and with it, the need for responsible frameworks.

At RSI, we believe our role as a leading online gambling operator goes beyond simply committing financial resources. We have a responsibility to seek out and create opportunities that empower young people with the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions—so that when the time comes, they can determine for themselves, with confidence and understanding, what relationship, if any, they wish to have with gambling products. This is why, in partnership with IC360, we developed GLAD—a curriculum designed to become a foundation in responsible gaming education for North American teens by helping inform their understanding of gambling and the importance of doing so responsibly.”   

“We are proud to partner with Rush Street Interactive, a company that has not only identified the need for gambling literacy among young people, but has also taken meaningful, proactive steps to lead the way in addressing the critical educational gap,” Eric Frank, Co-CEO and President of IC360 said. “Their demonstrable commitment to supporting educators and empowering students sets a new standard for creating informed and responsible attitudes towards gambling.”

The GLAD curriculum will initially launch in New Jersey and Delaware where, this spring, RSI and IC360 have been working with educational districts on a speaker series and educator curriculum delivery. These initial efforts will help define success metrics and gather feedback to shape the program's future, which will ultimately be available to educators more broadly to curate the content that resonates best with students.
