Why should you attend?
While COVID has taken the foreground in our attention, the number of states and federal bills seeking legalization for marijuana in the United States is escalating. Combined with a remote workplace workforce, increasing antidiscrimination laws protecting medical cannabis use AND increasing mental health issues relating to the pandemic, cannabis use, legal and illegal, is at an all-time high. If you fail to pay attention to the growth in cannabis use in the workplace, you are missing a critical issue.
