You don’t have to
navigate this alone.

When your teen is using cannabis, it can be surprisingly hard to find people you can really talk to about it.

Maybe you’re worried about what you’re seeing. Maybe you’re unsure how concerned you should be. Maybe cannabis has become a source of tension in your home - or something you think about far more than you wish you did.

And in a culture where cannabis use is increasingly normalized, it can sometimes feel as though there isn’t much room for the complicated feelings parents may have about it.

Cannabis Conversations Circle is a supportive online community where parents can talk honestly about the realities of teen cannabis use with people who understand.

Sometimes, what you need most is to be in a room with people who get it.

You don’t have to explain why you’re worried.

You don’t have to pretend you have the answers.

And you don’t have to sit quietly wondering whether you’re the only parent struggling with what to do, what to say, or even how to feel about what’s happening.

Twice each month, we come together online for thoughtful, honest conversation.

Parents can share what they’re experiencing, listen to others who may be a few steps ahead or right there beside them - ask questions, exchange ideas and resources, and gain perspective from people navigating similar challenges.

Sometimes you may leave with a new idea to consider.

Sometimes another parent’s experience may help you see your own situation differently.

And sometimes the most valuable thing may simply be hearing:

“Yes. I understand. We’re going through this too.”

A community to come back to.

In addition to our twice-monthly online gatherings, members have access to a private online community where you can:

• connect with other parents between sessions
• continue conversations from our gatherings
• share experiences, questions, and encouragement
• access resources and information
• stay connected to people who understand the complexity of this season

The goal of the Circle isn’t to give you a formula for changing your teen.

It’s to give you a place where you don’t have to carry the experience of parenting through this by yourself.

And along the way, you may find greater perspective, reassurance, new ways of thinking about what you’re experiencing, and a little more steadiness in figuring out what comes next.
