Community Panel In Tulsa Held To Try And Break Stigma Surrounding Cannabis As Medicine

Some health professionals and business women are trying to break the stigma surrounding cannabis as medicine through education and networking.

On Saturday, Women Plus Weed founder Jeana Acosta hosted a community panel at Living Arts Tulsa.

A doctor and a nurse talked about the benefits of using non-psychoactive cannabis and how to use cannabis for opioid addiction.

Several local women who use cannabis were also panelists, including an award-winning Ted-Ex speaker, a Tulsa District Three City Councilwoman and the Tulsa City Council Chair.
