Navigating today’s world for youth can be complicated and challenging. Shifting from the teen years to young adulthood requires young people to be equipped with the tools to build resilience, feel comfortable and confident having conversations about what is going on in their lives, and monitor their wellness.

Hello!
I'm a cannabis education outreach worker for the Six Nations Reserve. I'm toying around with a workshop idea that will essentially keep idle hands busy and away from cannabis, while also educating about cannabis. The target audience would be children and youth. I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on activities for this?
Thanks in advance,
Pauktuutit, the national non-profit organization representing all Inuit women in Canada, has released a new report called "Cannabis in our Communities: What we Heard." This report comes after 11 months of engagement with Inuit women, their partners, and youth to learn more about their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour towards cannabis.
The report is available in Inuktitut and English and can be accessed here.
Overview
The YMCA of Greater Toronto's Youth Cannabis Awareness Program (YCAP) is presently running a Digital Media Contest that challenges youth (ages 18 – 25) to create a video or poster discussing how cannabis use affects youth brain development, and we were wondering if you’d be willing to help us choose a winner by joining the Contest Organizer’s Jury (CO Jury).
Details:
Statscan recently released an analysis of their Canadian Wastewater Survey (CWS). It suggests that drug use increased early in the pandemic but that usage patterns varied by city.
