This bill mandates the creation and display of instructional posters that inform individuals about the effects of consuming unknown foods or beverages, particularly those that may include cannabis items or hemp-derived products. The Cannabis Regulatory Commission, in collaboration with the Commissioners of Education, Children and Families, and Health, is tasked with preparing these age-appropriate posters within 90 days of the bill's enactment. The posters must be designed in a clear and simple format that is easily understandable for individuals under the age of 21.
Furthermore, the bill outlines the distribution and display requirements for these posters across various institutions. The Departments of Education, Children and Families, and Health are responsible for distributing the posters to public and nonpublic schools, licensed child care centers, youth camps, recreation centers, and faith-based youth programs. Each of these entities is required to ensure that the posters are prominently displayed in high-traffic areas that are accessible to children and staff, thereby promoting awareness and education regarding the consumption of unknown food and beverages.
