Combating the War on Drugs
Every 25 seconds, someone in America is arrested for drug possession. The number of Americans arrested for possession tripled between 1980 and 2015, reaching 1.3 million arrests per year—six times the number of arrests for drug sales. [source]
As the cannabis industry continues to grow, it’s PharmaCann’s duty as a leader in the space to help individuals and communities that have been unjustly impacted by the so-called War on Drugs. Our mission is to help right these wrongs by building pipelines of opportunity for those persons adversely impacted.
“We believe in and support restorative opportunities for those who have been adversely impacted by the War on Drugs–from incarceration to graduation.”
Supporting Mission [Green] Alliance
PharmaCann has partnered with Mission [Green] Alliance, a grassroots initiative launched by The Weldon Project. Through a variety of internal and external programs, PharmaCann has donated over $250,000 to support the nonprofit's mission to secure the release of individuals serving time for cannabis-related offenses and to create pathways toward expungement.
"We are immensely grateful for PharmaCann's generous support of Mission Green through the roundup program," said Weldon Angelos, president and co-founder of Mission Green Alliance. "PharmaCann's contribution is not just a financial boost; it's a powerful endorsement of our mission to advocate for cannabis reform and support those who have been unjustly impacted by outdated laws."
