Upcoming Events

Calling all University of Guelph students! Participate in a 1-hour focus group to share your thoughts on:

- You and your peers' cannabis consumption patterns and habits

- What responsible cannabis use means to you

- What you want (and don't want) in an online learning module

Through this discussion, we hope to receive student feedback to help inform the development of a responsible cannabis use online training program for post-secondary students.

Each focus group will be held in the University Centre (room details to be sent upon registration) or online, and will be about 1 hour in length. Food will be provided during the in-person sessions, and all participants both in-person and virtual will receive a $20 Hospitality Services gift card. Please note that anything discussed during the focus group will remain confidential and anonymous, and any data collected will in no way be linked to your participation.

Space is limited, so please register at the following link: uoguel.ph/swscannabis

We hope to see you there!
