Fact Check Friday! 🧠

The brain continues developing until about age 25, making adolescence a critical time for growth and learning. During these years, substances like ma*****na can interfere with that development and impact how the brain forms important connections.

Research shows ma*****na use during adolescence may affect:
• Memory and learning
• Attention and concentration
• Decision-making and impulse control

Because the brain is still maturing, early substance use can have lasting effects on how young people think, process emotions, and respond to challenges.

Understanding the facts is one of the most important steps in prevention. Open conversations and education can help teens make informed, healthier choices.

Reaching out for help can be the hardest step, but it’s often the most important one.

Mary-Kate Olsen once reflected that the most difficult part of facing personal struggles is being honest with yourself and asking for help. Like many people, she faced challenges related to disordered eating and substance use during her youth, reminding us that mental health struggles can affect anyone.

Support and connection can make all the difference. Connect with us today and take that first step! 💙

Did you know?

63% of teens say they understand how va**ng affects their developing brain, but many still underestimate the risks.

During adolescence, the brain is still developing. Ni****ne from va**ng can:
🧠 Disrupt brain development
⚡ Increase risk of addiction
😟 Impact mood and mental health
📚 Affect focus, learning, and memory

Awareness matters. Helping teens understand the real effects of va**ng can support healthier choices.

First of all: that’s a real question. And it’s more common than people think. If ma*****na is starting to feel like a crutch instead of a choice, you're not alone. 🙃

Quitting isn’t about judgment. It’s about options. Some people vibe with group support, others with one-on-one talks. Some researchers are even testing meds that might help in the future.

Bottom line: there’s no one way to do this. But there are ways that work, especially for teens and young adults. And yes, especially in Alameda County.

Just because it’s not a cig doesn’t mean it’s harmless. 44% of San Leandro and 42% of Castro Valley 11th graders think va**ng isn’t that deep… but the truth?

Those sleek lil devices still mess with your lungs, your mood, and your focus. Ni****ne can hook your brain fast, and v**e juice isn't just “water vapor”. It’s full of chemicals you don’t want in your body.

Don’t let the flavors or the hype fool you. And if you’re feeling stuck or just need a place to figure things out, Project Eden’s here. 🤟

Saying "no" can be tough, but it's one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself. Practicing ways to say no in different situations helps you build confidence and makes it easier to respond naturally when the time comes.

Whether it’s saying no to high-risk substance use or anything else that doesn’t align with your values, remember that your choices matter. You have the right to protect your well-being and make healthy decisions.

Start practicing now. Imagine different scenarios and rehearse your responses. The more you practice, the more confident you'll become in standing up for yourself.

What’s your go-to response when you need to say no? Your words might help someone else feel more confident too.

Alcohol might knock you out fast, but it's like crashing your car to stop it from moving. Sure, it works, but it's a bad idea.

Alcohol is actually a sleep disruptor. It messes with your REM cycle, leaving you feeling groggy and grumpy in the AM.

So ditch the nightcap and try some actual sleep hygiene. Your brain (and your mood) will thank you. 😉

What’s one thing you’ve tried that actually helps you sleep better or what’s your go-to nighttime routine?
