Marijuana Use Prevention Resource Bank

Purpose

Legislation creating the Marijuana Use Prevention Resource Bank (S.B. 17-025), also known as the Jack Splitt Memorial Marijuana Resource Bank, was signed into law in June of 2017. The statute directs the Colorado Department of Education to create and maintain a resource bank for public schools consisting of evidence-based, research-based and promising materials and curricula pertaining to marijuana use prevention.

This resource bank provides public schools in Colorado the tools necessary to help address marijuana in the age of legal recreational use for adults. In addition to a broad group of stakeholders, users of the bank are invited to provide feedback with suggested improvements. The goal is to provide useful resources for schools in Colorado, while ensuring consistent updates for new promising practices and programs.
