Educational Resources
In June 2017, Senate Bill 8A amended section 381.989, Florida Statutes, and includes provisions directing the Florida Department of Health to develop a statewide public service education campaign to inform and educate Floridians on newly established medical marijuana laws and the importance of responsible use.
