Our prevention and county health folks will be spending more time working to help counties, schools, and communities to adopt policies that will reduce obesity, chronic disease and disparities. One area of focus will be Border Health where the objectives include reducing motor vehicle accidents and substance abuse. There will also be more going on around employee worksite wellness.

Dear Dr. Humble,
There needs to be a public campaign against marijuana use, particularly exposing the brain damage caused by chronic use of this drug. There are very many people, far too many, who, thanks in part to the introduction of medical marijuana, think that this drug is harmless and therapeutic. There are also many people who insist that any dangers associated with marijuana are solely caused by its illegal status and that legalizing marijuana is a panacea. I urge you to use your position to correct these errors and educate the public on the real dangers of marijuana use.
