As vaping and the use of cannabis continues to rise in popularity among teens, we want to equip our parents and caregivers with the necessary information to understand the risks of this trend.

The Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB), along with the Region of Waterloo Public Health and Paramedic Services, is hosting family information sessions that explore the many topics around vaping and cannabis use.

Vaping and Cannabis Information Sessions

The purpose of the information sessions is to provide information about vaping and cannabis, the latest products on the market, health risks, how to talk to your kids, parent resources, and school procedures.

Who Can Attend

If you are a parent, caregiver, community member or work with teens, we invite you to attend one of the two information sessions. No registration is required to attend this free event. No childcare will be provided.

If you are not able to attend in person to one of the sessions, please join us on April 13 at 7:00 p.m. on our Youtube channel for a live stream information session from Jacob Hespeler Secondary School in Cambridge.
