About This Workshop
Rapid growth, exploration and risk taking are all part of teen development. Taking risks gives teens a chance to test their abilities and learn more about themselves. Some risks, however, can be harmful and have lasting effects on your child’s health and well-being.
Vaping has become one of the most popular forms of substance use among young people, despite growing evidence of its health risks and harms. Whether your child is substance free, has already experimented or is using regularly, this workshop is for you. Trust your gut and get the facts. Parent knowledge, communication, and monitoring can make a big difference in keeping your child safe.
Join Jonathan Beazley LADC, LMFT and Peace at Home founder Ruth Freeman, LCSW, to get the facts you need to know about teen substance use and abuse, including vaping, nicotine and cannabis.
