Parabola Center is a nonprofit think tank of drug policy experts coming together to protect people, not corporations.
About us
Parabola Center is a group of attorneys, small business leaders, advocates, and consumers coming together to keep the power of cannabis policy with the people. With 20+ years of collective experience working in government, practicing law, and serving the public, we are well-equipped to support the individuals advocating for equitable policies that put people over corporations. Our team was the first in the nation to devise a clear path for small businesses and historically disenfranchised groups to enter the market. We are here to help create polices that reflect the needs of the millions of people who continue to form the legal cannabis movement. We make policy resources accessible to everyone, especially consumers, workers, and people impacted by the policies. In our experience, the more people who engage with policy, the better the results. We created Parabola Center so everyone can have the tools to be influential.

For the first time, cannabis is popular enough to warrant election-season attention from both parties. But both campaigns are missing a crucial point: Most Americans oppose corporate cannabis monopolies.” Read the latest opd-ed in Marijuana Moment from Parabola Center’s William “KC” Klens and Shaleen Title: Trump And Harris Need To Stop Pandering On Marijuana And Offer Concrete Plans For An Equitable Industry: https://lnkd.in/gBXPYCxh

Being a part of this was a huge highlight of my summer. Having cannabis advocates like Chelsea Higgs Wise, Tauhid Chappell, Jason Ortiz, Drudys “Dru” Ledbetter, and more come from all over the country to downtown Providence to learn about cannabis equity shows how powerful this movement is. Thank you again Shaleen Title, Laury Lucien, Shanel Lindsay, J.D., and Danielle Schumacher for choosing Providence. Can't wait until next year already!

Entrepreneurship can be a superpower to turn passions into positive change. On the other hand, unchecked capitalism acts like an insatiable dragon hoarding all the treasure - the only thing that matters is more and more for them. As a corporate litigator & social justice attorney turned inventor & CEO, I’m all about keeping small businesses and opportunities alive and kicking despite the big players’ plans to wipe them out. Thanks to Parabola Center for Law and Policy and Equitable Opportunities Now (EON), I get to use my talents to fight for a future that balances innovation with integrity, fights corporate greed and champions the rise of the people’s vision—because everyone deserves a shot at their own success story

Last weekend I was fortunate to attend the Parabola Center for Law and Policy Anti-Monopoly Cannabis Crash Course in Providence, RI. Grass Goddess Consulting partners with the Parabola Center and attending this event was something I prioritized though I almost missed it after a crazy travel day. I kept hearing stories about how travel is insane this summer but boy is it ever. There was a point after I ran through most of the DC Dulles airport and just missed my connection that I thought I might not make it in time. But the stars aligned and I’ll spare you the rest of the gory details but it’s a pretty interesting story if you want to hear it, just ask! My connection to the Parabola Center goes back to my brother, Ali who went to school with Shaleen Title and Danielle Schumacher. They all were involved in fighting for sensible drug policy as young adults and I met Shaleen about 10 years ago while I was living in Boston. After forming Grass Goddess Consulting and following the creation of the Parabola Center, I reached out and decided it was a worthwhile organization to be a part of. This article was originally written by Dina N. and published on her site, Grass Goddess Consulting LLC, and allowed us here at Beard Bros Pharms to share it with you. Continued at the link below.
