Delaware Lawmaker Files New Adult-Use Cannabis Legalization Bill

Chima Enyia, executive vice president of SEED, points to the four pillars of this Cresco Labs initiative: education, entrepreneurship, workforce development and restorative justice. “When we talk about, the Cannabis Education Center, we’re not the first or the last to dive into social equity work,” he says. We moved a dispensary from one location to another, and instead of getting rid of that dispensary facility, we decided to transition that into a full scale cannabis education center. As those colleges and universities continue to develop cannabis-related programming, the Illinois Cannabis Education Center will be a natural extension of that education. Beyond that, the Illinois Cannabis Education Center will also be used to host grassroots advocacy events and to provide a space for social equity organizations working on specific issues within cannabis.
