Presenter Bio
Aubree Adams is a leading advocate who stands up against the predatory addiction-for-profit marijuana industry. She is the founder and director of Every Brain Matters, a nationally trusted educational resource formed by families with loved ones who have been severely damaged or killed by the effects of marijuana. The stories of these families are featured on the Every Brain Mattes YouTube channel and the It’s Just Pot What’s The Problem? Podcast. This Pueblo, Colorado, mom lived at ground zero of the marijuana expansion movement. Aubree has been nationally featured on Fox News and NewsMax along with her op-eds published in USA Today and the Denver Gazette entitled "Standing up to the Threat of Marijuana." She has shared her devastating first-hand experience about this public health crisis before the FDA, The National Academy of Science, and in the documentary Chronic State. She has testified in many state governments, asking them to embrace healthy communities and families rather than the expansion of drugs. Aubree states that families and communities are unprepared for this era of industrialized marijuana that targets youth with flavored candies and vapes that provide a rapid and potent chemical assault to the brain. Families lack the resources to prevent, manage, or recover from a child or young adult addicted or psychotic from cannabis. Aubree rejects the false narrative that potent marijuana is a harmless expression of personal freedom. Based on the latest scientific evidence and personal stories, she states that THC is a dangerous and addictive drug, and like all drugs of abuse, it can destroy lives.
