Social Equity Council Work Group Meeting

According to Section 43 of Public Act No. 25-166, the SEC Working Group will explore and develop recommendations on key topics, including cannabis cultivation in affected areas, enhancing marketplace equity, and improving municipal relations. We will address critical issues such as identifying sustainable locations for cultivators, assisting local governments in accessing potential tax benefits, tackling market challenges, navigating zoning regulations, and examining equitable joint venture business models. Additionally, we are eager to engage with leaders from youth-serving organizations to gain insights on raising awareness and education regarding responsible cannabis use.
