Native Roots joined the Eagle River Youth Coalition for three meetings last month to educate parents and their kids bout vaping, cannabis and the risks associated with teen marijuana use.
The forums included presentations from the Eagle County Public Health about vaporizers, their development, their possible contents, studies on county and state usage and the unique risks marijuana poses on teen brain development.
Native Roots Vail Store Manager Tripp Smith was on hand to offer his real-world expertise, and to emphasize the industry’s commitment to keeping cannabis in adult hands.
Parents were receptive and positive, learning a great deal from ECPH and officers from the Breckenridge and Eagle police departments, who acknowledged that teens will experiment while emphasizing that informed and actively involved parents are the greatest deterrent to underage drug abuse.
