Florida's gambling landscape

From blackjack and roulette to sports betting and lottery, gambling in Florida is a large business. Although there's just one legal sportsbook in the state, Hard Rock Bet, sports betting is increasingly popular. Florida's wide range of available gaming options also introduces the potential for addiction. This raises a critical question: How is Florida tackling the issue of gambling addiction, and what measures are in place to ensure responsible gambling best practices are followed?  

Gambling Addiction in FL

Gambling addiction, also known as compulsive gambling or gambling disorder, is a serious and often hidden condition that affects many individuals and their families. Recognizing and addressing this issue is important for mitigating its potentially devastating effects on personal and family well-being. 

In the first two months of legal sports betting in Florida during late 2023, the state's gambling helpline reported a stunning 138% increase in outreach. There was such a sudden rise that the organization struggled to handle the volume. Then in 2024, calls increased by another 88% year over year. Whether that's due solely to sports betting legalization or other factors, there's no denying that gambling addiction is a growing issue in the state that needs to be addressed.

According to the Florida Council on Compulsive Gambling, an estimated 210,000 adults in Florida are living with a diagnosable gambling disorder. Furthermore, nearly 820,000 individuals, constituting almost 4% of the state's total population, are categorized as at-risk for developing gambling-related problems. 

Gambling Addiction Treatment Options

For those struggling with gambling addiction, Florida offers a range of treatment and recovery options designed to cater to individual needs and circumstances. These resources provide hope and support not just for the individuals affected but also for their families and loved ones. If individuals are looking for help with gambling addiction or a problem with sports betting for themselves or loved ones like a spouse, speaking with a licensed clinical provider like a Birches Health counselor can be an incredibly helpful first step.

Birches Health treatment can be covered insurance across the state of Florida. If you, a friend or loved one in the area may be struggling with their gambling, reach out to Birches today.
