Weiner brings a wealth of experience from his work in hospitals and private practice, offering a unique perspective on youth marijuana prevention.

Dr. Weiner also touches on the importance of community prevention efforts and the role of drug-free coalitions in making a difference.
Plus, he shares practical tips on managing stress to help disrupt the progression of substance use disorders. Whether you're a parent, educator, or just someone concerned about the next generation, this episode is packed with valuable insights that could make a real difference.
