Why Marijuana? Why Now?
From the 1960s through the 80s, the THC content in marijuana was less than 2%. In the 90s it rose to 4%. As recently as 2020, THC content had risen to 17-28% and can be even higher (up to 98%) in concentrated products. The increased potency has been associated with increased risk of addiction and worsening mental health problems. Mixed messages about the pros and cons of marijuana have increased as more states have legalized. Let's Be Clear, GA relies on the latest research and scientific evidence to inform others of the most up-to-date facts.
Meet the LBCG Staff
This is the team for LBCG. We are small but mighty. We strive to make a difference in marijuana prevention throughout the state of Georgia. We hope to educate about the potential harms of marijuana and hemp-derived THC use and improve lives by building mental health, supporting those who are addicted, and changing our communities for the better.
