Our

Vision

Through advocacy, entrepreneurship, and education, Marijuana Matters identifies and eliminates barriers to economic opportunity in regulated cannabis markets for those disadvantaged by marijuana’s criminalization. Our vision is simple: repair what’s been dismantled, restore what’s been destroyed, and reclaim what’s been displaced.

We focus on one specific aspect of the marijuana ecosystem.

We don't fight for legalization or push for referendums.

We educate cannabis stakeholders about the implications of the laws in their jurisdictions.

We advocate for inclusive language in cannabis related legislation and regulations.
