Activism and National Participation

If you're passionate about marijuana reform and want to get involved in activism, there are a number of national organizations that work to change laws and policies at the state and federal level. Some of these organizations include:

• NORML, which works to reform marijuana laws through lobbying, litigation, and public education
• Marijuana Policy Project (MPP), which works to change state and federal marijuana laws through lobbying, grassroots activism, and public education
• American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which works to end the War on Drugs and reform drug policies through litigation, advocacy, and public education

It's important to note that while we believe in the importance of marijuana reform, we do not suggest that anyone break the law. Always make sure to check the laws in your state before growing your own weed at home, and consider getting involved in activism to work towards change at the national level.
