Mostly likely you are reading this section because you have decided you can no longer sit back and watch the federal government continue its campaign against cannabis therapeutics and research in this country. Or maybe you want to engage your local government in creating sane polices for patients and patient access. Passion is the first step to becoming a great activist, but it is not the only step. ASA strives to empower the effected stakeholders and advocates engaging in ASA programs and projects through trainings, strategic planning, materials, action items, general and financial support, and connects them to powerful national, state, an local networks.
ASA's Activist Corner has been created to help you merge your passion with time tested skills that will help you direct your passion into effective action! ASA's staff is always available to help you through the process of becoming a medical cannabis activist. We are available to help with trainings as well as day-to-day support. ASA has a plan to end the federal campaign against cannabis therapeutics and research once and for all! A major part of that plan is creating a movement that cannot be ignored!
