Making Healthy Decisions: Vaping, Alcohol, and the Developing Brain

Description

This educational resource explores how adolescents make decisions and how substances such as vaping products, nicotine, alcohol, and marijuana can affect the developing brain and body. The session combines neuroscience, health education, and values-based discussion to help teens better understand risk, peer pressure, and long-term consequences - without relying on fear or judgment. The goal is to support informed, thoughtful decision-making during a critical stage of development.
