Empowerment
We celebrate the human potential. We help one another develop the skills to make a difference.
Decency
The most important thing we can do is be authentic and share our stories.
Fairness
We are setting aside our personal agendas to make a real change in our community with a united voice.
Courage
Trained and fortified, we speak with courage, often on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves.
Learning
The path to sensible policies begins with education. We provide accurate information to our constituents and our legislators.
Justice
Ending cannabis prohibition is an important step in finding justice and providing people an equitable starting points.
Friendship
Together, we work as friends with a purpose.

I cross the state line and take a deep breath. I never thought I’d be so happy to cross the Florida-Georgia line. I finally feel safe! I don’t need to worry about going to jail for the medication that keeps me out of a wheelchair. At least, not until the next time I need to leave the state of Florida.
Weeks ago, I agreed to write an insightful piece to help our community understand the difference between amending the Florida Constitution and the legislative process, the difference between protections of a right and a law. Little did I know at the time, that the Legislature was fast-tracking the death of direct democracy by attacking the Citizen’s Constitutional Initiative Process.
Remember the Children. The Florida Medical Marijuana program isn’t very friendly for children.
Who the heck knows what Boxing Day is all about? When I think of Boxing Day, I think of fighting for the right to Cannabis.
We were happy to open our headquarters on Friday, December 20th, 2019 for our Ugly Sweater Open House and HollyDaze...
