Medical Marijuana Caregivers of Maine to speak at Boothbay Lyme meeting
On Thursday, Aug. 18, Darrell Gudroe, board member and community
educator for Medical Marijuana Caregivers of Maine (MMCM), will be
speaking at the Midcoast Lyme Disease Support & Education Lyme
meeting. This meeting will be held at the Community Center, Meadow Mall,
Boothbay Harbor from 6-8 p.m. and is open to the public.
In 1999, Maine became one of the
first states in the country to legalize cannabis for medical use and in
2009, passed a law allowing a person with a doctor's certification to
purchase medical cannabis from a caregiver or dispensary. In 2010, MMCM
was formed as trade association to help provide advocacy and education
surrounding this medical need.
Medical doctors are integrating medical marijuana more and more with treatment protocols to those suffering from chronic and painfully debilitating illnesses and Darrell will share with us how MMCM is supporting that need here in Maine.
