Washington, D.C.'s Department of Health has scheduled a town hall meeting with medical marijuana advocacy group, Americans for Safe Access (ASA) to answer questions about implementation of the law passed 15 years ago that allows for cannabis use medicinally.
The "D.C. Medical Marijuana Patients Forum," scheduled for Dec. 12 at National City Christian Church, has in its agenda topics such as: eligible conditions for medical cannabis therepy, how to acquire it legally, and how to register as a user.
Those listed as featured presenters include Dr. Fresha Woldu, senior deputy director of health regulation for the District, and Steph Sherer, executive director of ASA.
"It's important to have medical marijuana patients, the ones most affected by the law, be directly involved in the implementation process," said Sherer. "Patients should not only begin a dialog with their doctors about medical marijuana, they should also clarify their needs and contribute to the development of the program."
Six cultivators and four dispensaries have been given conditional permits to operate, and expect to do so soon.
