553ds agoThe Empire City Casino in Yonkers is teaming up with an organization to make sure that anyone dealing with a gambling addiction can find help.
New York's Responsible Play Partnership teamed up with the casino to introduce Voluntary Self-Exclusion, which involves filling out a form in order to be excluded from any promotional gambling advertising.
