Nicotine, Marijuana and the Adolescent Brain Please join us for the final Accountability Committee meeting of the year on Tuesday, May 9th at 7 am in Room E100. We will be joined by guest speaker Jen Bolcoa. Jen Bolcoa is a health educator with Jeffco’s Healthy Schools Program and a D’Evelyn parent. Her focus is on teen tobacco and other drug abuse prevention, and the social and emotional well-being of Jeffco students. Her presentation will cover Nicotine, Marijuana and the Adolescent Brain. Parents will get an overview of today’s nicotine and marijuana products, the health impacts of both on the brains and bodies of teens, and some basic trends in teen use. In addition, there will be information on how Jeffco supports teens, proven protective factors and where parents can go for more information. |
