What do you do with someone who can’t seem to stop smoking marijuana?

This is a common and tricky problem. Many of our program members have used marijuana for years to address a number of emotional/physical issues. We try to be thoughtful and compassionate but firm in our belief that individuals can learn new skills/coping strategies, and ultimately they must eventually be off marijuana to remain in our program.
