You can be the reason a child never rides with an impaired driver or never drives impaired after they turn 21. Underage drinking and cannabis use are among the most preventable — yet dangerous — risks facing youth today. In this webinar, Dr. Robert Turrisi from the Pennsylvania State University will share evidence-based strategies from decades of research, including insights from MADD’s Power of Parents Handbook. You’ll learn how alcohol and cannabis affect the developing brain, how parenting must evolve as kids grow, and what truly works to reduce risky behaviors.
