The landscape of legalized marijuana continues to change. As more states legalize marijuana, early childhood programs may face questions about staff use of marijuana products. And families may have questions about how to keep children safe at home. Reports of children unintentionally consuming marijuana edibles have increased, and children may be exposed to marijuana during pregnancy or through secondhand smoke. This webinar highlights strategies to prioritize child safety by building awareness and providing education to staff and families using a non-biased and strength-based approach. Explore common concerns about marijuana’s effects during pregnancy, young children’s exposure to edibles and secondhand smoke, impaired judgment while using, and employment issues. Learn lessons from a state that has been addressing concerns related to legalization of marijuana for nearly 10 years.

This webinar is offered with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish.
