Our vision: A safe and healthy Kitsap County for all.
Cannabis (marijuana) is a drug that is used recreationally and medicinally. With supervision from a healthcare provider, cannabis can be useful for treating some health conditions and symptoms.
However, cannabis can have harmful effects, especially younger people. People who start using cannabis earlier in life increase their risk of developing certain health issues. It is illegal for people under 21 to buy or use recreational marijuana in Washington state.
Our Role
Kitsap Public Health District is committed to reducing substance use among youth. Recreational cannabis is one of the substances that we have prioritized for prevention because of its increased use since legalization and its harmful effects on youth.
We work to prevent substance use and promote healthy behaviors among youth through education, community engagement, and strengthening connections within our region.
