The League of Women Voters of the San Juans joins with the San Juan Island Prevention Coalition for its November program. Scheduled is a Community Conversation, open to the public, about Healthy Choices and Prevention.
In November 2012, 69 percent of the voters in San Juan County approved Initiative 502, the Legalization of Marijuana for Recreational Use. How does this legislation impact San Juan County?
