WEB LETTER: For Those Suffering from Problem Gambling, It Has Never Had a More Fitting Name – March Madness
Problem Gambling Awareness Month occurs annually in March, in part due to the wagering frenzy associated with the NCAA collegiate basketball championship tournament – known to many as March Madness.
This year, March Madness is in action from Selection Sunday on March 17th until the NCAA Championship Game on April 8th. Like the Super Bowl, March Madness draws in even those who don’t otherwise bet on games during the regular season. The popularity of the tournament inspires office betting pools and bracket contests of all kinds, as millions around the country make efforts to be included in the action.
Read the March Web Letter to learn how this year is different and what anyone in Florida who is suffering from problem gambling – or knows someone who is – needs to know.
