Breaking the Stigma

Normalizing cannabis consumption sometimes involves having difficult conversations.
No matter who your audience is: a government official, member of law enforcement, neighbor, or beloved family member, being armed with data, facts, and concise talking points will help facilitate the conversation.

 

We challenge every single person to read about the history of cannabis in the United States and why black and brown individuals are 3.64 times more likely to be arrested for cannabis-related incidents than their white counterparts today. It’s a story shrouded in bureaucratic agendas woven with systemic racism at its core.

 

The first step to having a meaningful conversation about cannabis involves recognizing and
acknowledging an entire generation that purposely instilled fear and misinformation in the hearts of the general population with “Reefer Madness” campaigns and D.A.R.E programs.

Industry

Across the United States, the cannabis industry is experiencing a rapid pace of growth compared to any other market.

 

With nearly half a million people currently working in the industry, we are still in the infancy stage trying to develop stronger foundations. Working through state-by-state piecemeal regulations has shown to be incredibly difficult and with a push for reform happening on the federal level as well, there are many moving parts.
