National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week – March 17-23: Cannabis

 


National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week (NDAFW) - celebrated this week March 17-23 - is an annual event focused on the science of drug use and addiction to educate and empower youth to make informed decisions about substance use and their health. 

Today's Did You Know Fact: Studies show that 9% of people who use cannabis will develop a dependency - and that number jumps to 17% for those who start using in their teens. Early use = higher risk of addiction. Let's give teens the facts to make informed decisions. #NDAFW

Teens can test their knowledge about drugs, alcohol, and substance use by taking the interactive National Drug and Alcohol IQ Challenge Quiz:
