Get the Facts Outreach Letter
Objective
The Get the Facts program educates students in grades 4-6 on the impacts and risks of using alcohol, cannabis, tobacco and vaping products.
It highlights the potentially harmful effects these substances can have on a young person’s brain development. This foundational information will help younger youth build a mindset centered around healthy choices and encourage lower risk behaviours later in life.
