At Kansas Cannabis Coalition, we know that sometimes all it takes to change the world is the uniting of like-minded organizations and individuals. Since our founding in 2020, we have been determined to make an impact.

Mission Statement: The Kansas Cannabis Coalition exists as a dedicated independent group of organizations and individuals working in an advisory role towards strategic, long-term campaigns for accelerating change in cannabis reform in Kansas.

We are an all-volunteer organization and spend countless hours educating and answering questions about medical cannabis use. Using current, science-based studies and data we meet with elected officials and others highlighting the need for the passage of a medical cannabis program in Kansas. Kansans who use cannabis medically deserve easy access to safe, tested Kansas grown products.
