STUDENTS ARE GETTING THE WRONG MESSAGE ABOUT CANNABIS

As cannabis laws and perceptions evolve, student behavior is shifting, and many middle and high school students underestimate the risks. Cannabis Wise equips schools with an engaging, age-appropriate course that helps students understand the real impacts of cannabis use and make safer choices. 

DISTRICTS ARE NAVIGATING

  • Increasing normalization of cannabis use among teens
  • Misperceptions about safety, legality, and vaping
  • Limited time and resources for prevention and intervention
  • Pressure to reduce repeat incidents and improve student outcomes

A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO CANNABIS PREVENTION

Cannabis Wise is an evidence-based course designed to help middle and high school students understand the real impact of cannabis use—before patterns of behavior develop.

Schools can use Cannabis Wise as part of a prevention strategy to help students:

  • Understand how cannabis affects the developing brain
  • Correct common misperceptions about safety and legality
  • Build decision-making and refusal skills
  • Reflect on influences and social pressures

This creates a stronger foundation for healthier choices reducing risk before incidents occur.
