Social Equity Scholarship Program

Social Equity Scholarship Program

Author: Cannabis Radio November 30, 2020 Duration: 31:04
Social Equity Scholarship Program with Tahir Johnson, NCIA Membership Manager, DEI Manager. We start by talking about the Committee itself. NCIA has 13 different industry sector committees like Marketing and Advertising, Cultivation, and so on, and we have an active Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee as well. We dive into who is serving on the committee and what are they focused on right now. The Social Equity Scholarship Program is another aspect of our overall DEI Program, and we’ve already given over 100 annual NCIA memberships to equity operators in various states. We talk more about that. Tahir has had several of our scholarship recipients on his podcast, The Cannabis Diversity Report, so if your interested that's the place to go hear their stories. Tahir Johnson is a Membership Manager and DEI Coordinator for the National Cannabis Industry Association.
