DES MOINES, Iowa — March Madness is typically a fun time of year: Iowans see their state represented on courts across the country, and fans get a chance to predict who will win it all. But amid the fun, there can be serious risks associated with gambling.
Your Life Iowa is a program through the Iowa Department of Public Health. This month, the program hopes to raise awareness for problem gambling in the state. Project manager for the Office of Gambling Katie Bee told Local 5 that, with March Madness approaching, their helpline has been busy.
