The Pawtucket Prevention Coalition is urging parents to become more informed about the realities of today’s marijuana. Present-day cannabis products are significantly different from those in the past, with much higher THC levels and a variety of new forms such as edibles and concentrates. This presents unique challenges and risks, particularly for young people who may be more susceptible to its effects.

To address these concerns, the coalition is offering resources and educational sessions aimed at helping parents understand the potential health impacts and legal implications of marijuana use. The goal is to equip parents with the knowledge they need to have informed conversations with their children about the risks associated with modern marijuana, promoting safer, healthier communities.
