Dr. Karen Simone, Director of the Northern New England Poison Center, will provide an overview of factual information about today’s marijuana products. They are stronger, often times contain no or less CBD in relationship to THC, and are vastly available in edible and other forms. Information is plentiful, while facts are difficult to extract with confidence. People using marijuana are confused regarding the safety of driving. CBD is promoted as a cure for everything and anything. Learn what is known and unknown.
This webinar was presented on September 19, 2019 by the New England Prevention Technology Transfer Center (PTTC).

Those working with young children
have long known the importance of early experiences and relationships in
healthy child development. Newer terms such
as toxic stress and ACES are used when describing these not-so-new ideas,
and are particularly important when working with families impacted by substance
abuse. During this online training, learners will expand their
current knowledge about early development to include up-to-date science that is
accessible and useful in daily real-life interactions. Using a case-based
approach, participants will apply new knowledge to familiar scenarios to
enhance their engagement with high-risk young children and families.

Hey, the 90s called … they want their slide deck AND presentation back! Coalitions use presentations as a primary strategy to disseminate information, build skills, ignite calls to action and influence change. However most of us never receive any formal training in presentation design – despite all we expect them to do for us. Consequently, our presentations are as dated as dial-up Internet. In this session, you’ll learn a framework based in brain science to develop and deliver exceptional presentations – every time – using the tools and resources you already have. Get ready to transform your audience with modern and powerful presentations.
