What is Your Marihuana IQ?
This presentation provides you with an opportunity to learn more about marijuana and its impact on the community, specifically our NJ youth. In light of NJ cannabis legalization, it is ever so important that our community members, including parents and caregivers, become educated on the effects of marijuana use on youth. This program will discuss research related to the topic. Participants will have the opportunity to learn something new and hear the latest trends, community solutions, and areas of priority to keep our community healthy and safe.
