Seminar on Preventing Drug Abuse: "Say No to Drugs"

In an important initiative to combat drug abuse, the National Police Agency is organizing a seminar entitled "Say No to Drugs", in collaboration with Sports Field Inc., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo. This event aims to educate young people about the risks and realities of drug abuse, particularly focusing on the increasing prevalence of marijuana use among the youth.

Background

Recent statistics reveal a worrying trend: over 70% of marijuana-related arrests in the current year involve individuals in their teens and twenties. Many young people are misled by false information available online, asserting that marijuana poses no health risks and has no addictive properties. This misinformation has contributed to the alarming rise in drug use among adolescents. The seminar seeks to address these issues by providing accurate information and raising awareness about the dangers of drug misuse.
