Their Press Release says
Have you been thinking about getting into Massachusetts’ legal cannabis industry but don’t know where to start? The Commission’s Social Equity Program (SEP) can help!
The SEP is a free, statewide technical assistance and training program that creates sustainable pathways into the cannabis industry for individuals most impacted by the War on Drugs. Once approved, you are eligible to receive expedited licensing review, certain fee waivers, exclusive access to delivery and social consumption licenses, and more.
So far, nearly 900 participants have experienced our programming designed to share skills and tools for success in the legal marketplace across four areas:
- Entrepreneurship and license ownership
- Managerial-level workforce development
- Entry-level workforce development
- Ancillary businesses that contract with or otherwise support the industry but do not hold a license.
Applications open February 5. Stay tuned for more details!
