Got 10 Minutes? Help shape the future of medical cannabis access; just a few days left to take ASA's patient survey! Are you satisfied with current cannabis laws and access? Or are you frustrated by restrictive local policies, limited products, or other barriers? We want to hear from you! For over 20 years, Americans for Safe Access (ASA) has been amplifying patient voices—fighting for safe, legal, and compassionate access to medical cannabis in statehouses and on Capitol Hill. But we can’t do it without your insights. This survey is a significant component of ASA's State of the State report, which grades all medical cannabis programs and makes recommendations for improvements for legislators and regulators. https://lnkd.in/dXvtPenR There are always gaps between laws and regulations on paper and patients' experiences. The survey plays a crucial role in guiding ASA's interpretation for grading. Take 10 minutes to complete ASA’s anonymous comprehensive survey and share your experiences. Your voice will directly shape advocacy efforts, helping to create meaningful change for medical cannabis patients across the country. This is your chance to make a difference. Share your story. Be heard. Take ASA’s Survey Today! https://lnkd.in/gRqpsyMC #medicalcannabis #endpainnotlives Michelle Wright, Mary Shapiro, Don Duncan, Antonio Frazier, Carla Rossotti Vázquez, MD, Shanetha Marable-Lewis, M.S., Codi Peterson, U.S. Pain Foundation, National MS Society, Epilepsy Foundation, AARP Foundation, Steph Sherer, American Herbal Products Association (AHPA), National Organization for Rare Disorders, EveryLife Foundation for Rare Diseases, National Pain ReLEAF, Medical Cannabis Science and Therapeutics (MCST) Program, Tetragram, Deondra Asike, MD, Realm of Caring Foundation, Americans For Safe Access, Minority Cannabis Business Association, Dravet Syndrome Foundation, Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) Foundation, This is Jane Project, The Michael J.

Your mental health toolkit just got a green upgrade. Here’s what you need to know ⬇️ Cannabis is more than just a way to relax—it’s becoming a go-to natural solution for mental health support. From reducing anxiety to easing the effects of stress, cannabis has been shown to help with managing mood and improving overall well-being. Studies suggest that CBD specifically can be especially beneficial for anxiety and depression, providing a calming effect without the high. 🌱 Whether you're looking to unwind or take the edge off a rough day, incorporating cannabis into your mental health toolkit might just be the game changer you need. 💚

Three things you must know for responsible cannabis use ⬇️ 1️⃣ Start Low, Go Slow – Whether it's your first time or you're experienced, always begin with a low dose. THC affects everyone differently, and starting small helps you avoid unwanted side effects like anxiety or dizziness.  2️⃣ Know Your Consumption Method – From edibles to smoking to tinctures, each method affects your body in unique ways. Edibles can take longer to kick in but last longer, while smoking is faster but may impact your lungs. Choose what works best for you!  3️⃣ Choose Clean Cannabis – Look for a Certificate of Analysis (COA) – To ensure your cannabis is free of harmful contaminants like pesticides, heavy metals, or mold, always choose products with a COA. A reputable COA will confirm the cannabinoid content, making sure you're getting the right dose.  Contact our care team at 719-347-5400, opt. 1 with any questions about starting your cannabinoid therapy journey.

We hope everyone has a very merry Christmas 🔥🎄

Forget cookies and milk. Santa wants edibles this year! 🍪 Merry Christmas from our RoC fam 💚

"My feet felt like they were constantly on fire. The burning pain never went away, and was especially challenging in bed when the nerve pain went up higher and higher. Standing in lines like at the post office or at the grocery store were no longer possible. My passion for travel, and love of movement and just walking were totally gone, as was golf and any hiking." This powerful story from one of our community members highlight the transformative potential of cannabis.  It's a stark reminder of why we do what we do. Talking about pain isn't easy, but it's incredibly important. Has cannabis been a lifeline for you or someone you love? Your story could be the hope someone else needs right now.
