As parents, the landscape of public policy around marijuana shapes the environment in which we are raising our children. In this timely presentation, Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM) examines the impact of marijuana on communities; from the effect on youth use, to drugged driving, to complex concerns surrounding social justice issues. Join Dr. Kevin Sabet, former senior White House policy advisor to three presidents, and his colleagues from SAM, who will walk us through the lessons learned from legalized states, their impact on our young people and public health at large, and the role parents, caregivers, and community members can play in this important public health conversation.
