“14 is the age when most Canadians first try cannabis. In an interview with Steve Paikin from TVO-The Agenda, experts from McMaster University and YMCA Youth Cannabis Awareness Program (YCAP) discuss cannabis and its effect on the developing brain, and how to navigate challenging conversations with youth about its use. We’re happy to be a part of these important conversations. Informed by protective factors contributing to youth mental health, YCAP provides a multi-faceted approach to increase knowledge and skills, supporting positive youth development.”
