YOUTH OPPORTUNITIES
Become a Voice for Your Generation
Smoke and Mirrors: Cannabis & Youth Public Health Campaign
Part-Time Paid Spokesperson Opportunity (Ages 18–28)
This is more than a job.
This is a chance to influence your generation.
We are looking for young adults who care about real conversations around mental health, the developing brain, cannabis culture, and helping young people make informed choices, without judgment, fear tactics, or outdated messaging.
If you're a strong communicator, a natural storyteller, passionate about youth wellness, or someone who has personally chosen not to use THC products, or decided to stop, we want to hear from you.
Our Mission
The brain continues developing through your 20s. Most young people were never taught what THC products can actually do to motivation, memory, mood, anxiety, focus, emotional development, or long-term goals.
We want to change that.
Smoke and Mirrors is building a youth-driven movement focused on:
- honest education
- critical thinking
- public health awareness
- empowerment over pressure
- helping young people protect their future
This campaign is about giving young people a voice, not talking at them.
How to Apply
Joining the Smoke & Mirrors team is a simple, three-step process. We are looking for authentic voices ready to shape the future of youth wellness.
