There is a Free workshop that will cover many of the finer points of the new law if you or anyone you know is interested. Here is the link to the FB event:
https://www.facebook.com/events/607331509308967/?source=1&mall_view=posts

If the link doesn't work here are the details:



  • Roosevelt University 425 S Wabash Ave Room 616 Chicago, IL 60605

  • Yes, Medical Cannabis is legal in the state of Illinois starting January 1st of 2014.
    Will it help you?
    How do I sign up?
    Where do I get it?

    All these questions and more will be addressed at our FREE Workshop. (Donations are welcome. They will go towards future events.)
    Illinois has been waiting a long time for Medical Cannabis. Now that it is here, it is a very complex set of rules for patients to navigate.

    Our organization has been involved in getting information about Medical Cannabis to patients since 2009. Now, more than ever, patients need this information. We are patients helping patients.

    Check out our FREE workshop and educate yourself about:
    What cannabis can do for your body.
    What legal implications being a patient will have in your life.
    When to expect everything to happen.

    Bring a friend or better yet, bring a family member. This is a time in America's history that is to be noted. Not because of laws changing, but because something that was once perceived as not being good, is now coming into the light and being seen as the beneficial plant that it is. People are transforming from criminals to patients in the eyes of the general public.

    Be in the know! Even if you are not sick, what you learn here at our workshop could save someone you love from a world of suffering.

    It is my understanding that this venue will be wheelchair accessible.

    For parking guide and public transportation schedules please click here http://www.roosevelt.edu/CampusCommunity/Wabash/MapsAndDirections.aspx

    A hearty "Thank You" to our friends at SSDP Roosevelt University chapter for hosting the event.

    I look forward to meeting you.
