The Cannabis Health Equity Movement™ (CHEM) is a call to action. It’s a call to educate, advocate, and demonstrate that cannabis is a root-solution to healing people and the earth.

Our mission is to actualize health equity for all people beginning with the revitalization of the Black, Indigenous and Latinx (BIL) communities harmed most by the war on drugs. With The 4 Pillars of Health Equity as our guide (economic, environmental, human and social equity), we apply regenerative design to the industrial ecology of cannabis, aiming to leverage the agricultural, industrial, medical and nutritional innovations of cannabis to revivify BIL communities into sustainable and resilient ecosystems that are productive of health, wealth and prosperity.

Our coalition (CHEM Coalition) is a mutual benefit, non-profit organization within the greater movement, and its mission is two-fold: to cultivate BIL cannabis industry and ancillary workforce, entrepreneurship and leadership success, and to promote stewardship of community planning and economic development through education, workforce development, small business support, reciprocal partnerships and the design and implementation of community revitalization initiatives.

40 Acres And A Dispensary is an organization that educates the Black community on the vast and lucrative opportunities in the cannabis industry. We provide vital information, artistic motivation and resources to help individuals enter into and become successful in the cannabis space. It is our belief that generating wealth is a vital part of generating health in a community. Therefore, we seek to build holistic health by promoting: Reparations through cannabis!
