KPhA Member Dr. Amber Cann to Serve on KY Medical Cannabis Advisory Committee

Earlier this month, Gov. Andy Beshear announced 17 members of Team Kentucky Medical Cannabis Advisory Committee to help advise him on providing access to medical cannabis for Kentuckians suffering from chronic pain and other medical conditions.

We are delighted one of the 17 selected and announced through an executive order is fellow KPhA member Dr. Amber Cann. The committee announced a state-wide Town Hall Tour to listen to Kentuckians' views on medical cannabis and provide the Governor feedback.

 

Secretary of the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet Kerry Harvey and Secretary of the Public Protection Cabinet Ray Perry will serve as co-chairs of the Team Kentucky Medical Cannabis Advisory Committee. 

Please join us at one of the Town Hall Meetings listed below and help us spread the word. It is to our benefit to have as many pharmacists from all facets of the profession in attendance.
