USask Project Engages and Educates Schoolchildren About Risks of Cannabis Use
A team of students and faculty from the University of Saskatchewan (USask) are working to help children and teenagers in Saskatoon make smart choices about cannabis.
Through their work as part of the Cannabinoid Research Initiative of Saskatchewan (CRIS), Drs. Holly and Kerry Mansell (PharmD) from the College of Pharmacy and Nutrition recognized a gap in cannabis education for youth. They approached their colleagues Tish King and Jenn Klemmer from the College of Nursing to fill the gap by leveraging partnerships with four schools in the Saskatoon Public School Division and Saskatoon Greater Catholic School Division.
