Addiction Awareness Programme by SUSS UniLEARN x WE CARE

08/11/2024  |  By: UniLEARN

Addiction is a complex condition characterized by compulsive engagement in a behavior or consumption of a substance despite harmful consequences. It can affect the brain’s reward system, leading to cravings and a loss of control over the behavior.

Addiction can manifest in various forms, such as substance use (e.g. drugs, alcohol, tobacco) or behavioral addictions (e.g. gambling, gaming, internet use).

Overcoming addiction is often a long-term process, and ongoing support helps individuals stay motivated and build healthier habits to maintain sobriety and well-being.

The Addiction Awareness Programme co-developed by SUSS UniLEARN and WE CARE Community Services provides a better understanding to…

  • Addiction in Alcohol and Binge Drinking
  • Eating Disorders
  • Pornography & Sex Addiction
  • Addiction to Internet and Gaming

Programme Fee: $8 before GST* (U.P. $40) for a bundle of 4 courses

Programme Fee is funded by SUSS-UniLEARN Temasek Foundation Grant
