In this issue of Psychiatric Clinics, guest editors Drs. Paula Riggs, Jesse D. Hinckley, and J. Megan Ross bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Adolescent Cannabis Use. Marijuana use has been an ongoing problem for teens and adolescents, but with the legalization of marijuana in many parts of the U.S., accessibility is becoming greater than ever before. Marijuana use in teens can have negative physical, social, and psychological impacts, and this issue is designed to help practicing clinicians address marijuana use and abuse in their patients.
