In this new era of industrialized THC, families need support and hope. Please join us on the 2nd Wednesday of every month for messages of healing from the impacts of marijuana and the expanding drug crisis. There will be a Q&A at the end of each meeting. This meeting may be recorded at the presenter’s discretion.

This monthe we feature The Parent Action Network.

The Parent Action Network (PAN) is a grassroots initiative of Smart Approaches to Marijuana that seeks to raise the voices of families who have been negatively impacted by the legalization and commercialization of marijuana, especially today’s high-potency products. Through their trainings PAN equips families with the tools and resources they need to tell their stories and enact change. PAN educates parents and families on current issues, arming them with science-based facts, and empowering them so they have the confidence and tools to encourage decision-makers to make informed drug policy decisions that protect our public health and safety. In this presentation, you will learn the ways in which you can get involved with PAN and advocate on Capitol Hill and in your own states and communities.

Crissy Groenewegen serves as the Director of the Parent Action Network. She is the former Director of the only non-profit agency in Dutchess County, NY, dedicated to preventing youth initiation into substance use and misuse. She is a skilled prevention specialist, experienced at building the capacity of small grass roots community groups and movements. She is passionate about making a difference in our communities and working to make our neighborhoods safe for youth and families. The decision to take on this role comes from a place of great respect for the advocacy work that SAM does. She shares SAM’s mission and vision of creating a network of parents and families who will be able to tell their stories, and in turn educate lawmakers, and advocate for safe policies surrounding the issue of legalized marijuana and the dangers of today’s high potency THC products. Crissy is the mother of three adult children and the proud grandma to her only grandchild, Ethan! She lives in Dutchess County, NY with her husband and their pets.
