HOLLYWOOD — Seeking to engage Los Angeles residents in a meaningful dialogue around how to protect youth from undue harms related to marijuana, a local collaboration of public health agencies, medical experts, law enforcement and youth groups hosted a community town hall May 18.
The forum — entitled “What’s What With Weed?” — brought together experts and community members to talk about youth and marijuana: the latest research, lessons learned from Oregon and Washington, and smart approaches to regulation to minimize youth access if marijuana is legalized.
“What’s What With Weed” was organized by Rethinking Access to Marijuana (RAM), a collaboration of public health agencies throughout Los Angeles County.
