Be Cannabis Aware

“Be Open”

Minnesota Department of Health youth cannabis education campaign (US-MN) launched 25 September 2025 for people under 25 and the adults who support them, built on a 'Be Open' concept that avoids shame, with social, digital, billboard and print ads and outreach kits; local versions run in northeast and southeast Minnesota counties.
