GSAPP Webinar – Medical and Legal Marijuana in NJ: Practice and Policy Issues

November 21 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

The goal of this interactive workshop is to identify the changes that have occurred in the NJ Medicinal Marijuana Program. The history of marijuana legalization and major events that have shaped this history are discussed. Known scientific research on the benefits of medicinal marijuana and the risks associated with marijuana usage are covered, as well as the continued barriers to better scientific research on this topic. Interactive exercises are incorporated. Other exercise includes the participants discussing how treatment is impacted by medicinal marijuana.

Participants will be able to:

  • At the end of this course, participants will be able to interpret three changes that have occurred since 2019 in the NJ Medicinal Marijuana Program.
  • At the end of this course, participants will be able to analyze whether to continue services for a client on medicinal marijuana if their only diagnosis is cannabis use disorder.
  • At the end of this course, participants will be able to identify at least three key historical events that shaped marijuana’s legal status in the United States.
