This funding opportunity supports rigorous research to better understand how legalized sports betting affects individuals, families, and communities, with a focus on financial, behavioral, and social outcomes. The initiative encourages studies that generate timely, policy-relevant evidence using strong causal methods such as randomized controlled trials or quasi-experimental designs. Research may also explore how state-level regulatory environments shape these impacts. The goal is to inform public policy decisions around sports betting through clear, actionable findings.
