  6. Why did this happen? • While fighting certain problems (meth/Rx), others arise • Shift in perceptions of danger/harm/risk • Lowering age for gateway use, ±12 • Social/parental acceptance of steroid use at BRHS • Shift from opiate-based Rx to Heroin

  9. What’s new on the scene? • JWH-O18 • Commonly known as Spice, K2 • Produces the euphoric effect or high in humans. • Binds with receptors at a rate four times greater than THC (natural or synthetic). • Common marijuana drug tests detect THC metabolites, not synthetics • $16/oz • Counterfeit also available

  10. So What? • It is legal. • Made of herbs & botanicals laced with synthetic THC compounds • 3 out of 4 “head” shops/tobacco shops I personally visited in Lakeside sell it • Sold for incense, not for human consumption • User cases in ER exhibit vomiting, hallucinations, agitated behavior • Can induce anaphylactic shock & coma • Outlawed in many countries & states

  11. What to do? • Be aware of strange incense products and smells in the kids’ rooms • Ask if any of their friends are using Spice/smoking incense • Have the general drug talk with your kids • Support a planned ban on Spice by Navajo County government

  12. Prop 203—How will it affect us? • Minors can be medical marijuana cardholders with 2 recommendations & parental permission • Schools can not discriminate against card holders for admission or employment • Cardholders can come to school, work under the influence of medical marijuana • Cardholders can not be prosecuted for having metabolites in the body while in class or at work • Minor users can use during the school day, 500 yards off campus without penalty • Cardholders entitled to 5 oz/mo ±400 joints • Marijuana already is #2 behind alcohol for use by BRUSD students—wait until AYS 2012!!!
