We are committed to helping LA County residents take action in their communities to minimize youth exposure to marijuana.

The #WEEDecide Project
What is the #WEEDecide project?
With the recent passage of marijuana legalization in California, rapid openings of new dispensaries in Los Angeles, and the increase in marijuana use by youth, the #WEEDecide project hopes to encourage youth in their community to change social norms that influence engagement in illicit drugs. Through social media channels (Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook), the #WEEDecide project is seeking to build dialogue with their peers on youth marijuana use.
