As the Matanuska-Susitna Borough’s community substance use prevention coalition, THRIVE Mat-Su identified youth marijuana use as a key issue needing its own strategic initiative. THRIVE Mat-Su contracted with McDowell Group to conduct a literature review of marijuana impacts on youth, risk and protective factors for youth marijuana use, and evidenced based strategies for youth marijuana-use prevention that may be appropriate for the Mat-Su Borough.
