Are you about to retire?

Consider joining the Humber College Retirees’ Association (HCRA).

This is a way to keep in touch with colleagues and even to meet those fellow employees your work didn’t give you a chance to know better.

The majority of our activities are social, but we also support students through the Retirees' Bursary and Scholarship Programs.

Your retirement information from HR will include the HCRA brochure that has membership information. Or you can go to the “Come Join Us” webpage at the address below.

An additional note: HCRA membership is open to all former employees of Humber College, part time and short-term contract. These employees are not formally “retired” so HR will not convey HCRA info to them. Tell any colleagues of this membership opportunity.

Weed Out Misinformation
View in full page
When:
April 19, 2022

Myths and misleading information remain largely because cannabis consumers lack access to reliable, scientific sources and instead rely on information from less reliable sources. The initiative “Weed Out Misinformation” focuses on harm reduction by teaching people how to be safer, reduce risk, and minimize negative outcomes with the use of cannabis.

We invite you to learn more about the research the Engaging and Educating Young-Adult Cannabis Consumers project that launched in 2020 with funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. The research program aims to better understand young adult cannabis consumers, how they obtain cannabis information, and which myths they continue to believe as a result of prohibitionist drug education. The project is led by Dr. Daniel Bear and Dr. Ashley Hosker-Field (FCSS), and Professor Marilyn Cresswell (FMCA).

Find out if you are able to identify cannabis myths here by taking this quiz:
