    Mass. schools doubling down on education to protect boys from gambling problems

    Massachusetts schools are implementing a gambling prevention program targeting boys, led by teacher Pete Hall who shares his personal experience with compulsive gambling. A 2023 survey found around a third of 11- to 17-year-old boys gambled in the last year, with research indicating higher risk for males. The program aims to address youth gambling as a growing public health concern, following the 2018 Supreme Court ruling that expanded sports betting.
