IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0ASAF state campaigns are designed to monitor, implement, and improve medical cannabis law in states where it is legal through protection and expansion of patients' rights, using education, litigation, legislation, grassroots advocacy and direct support. ASAF state campaigns include an Emergency Response program to create a grassroots response to federal interference and intimidation, distribution of thousands of pieces of educational literature, provision of resources for community organizers, and an aggressive proactive and reactive media campaign. State campaigns have succeeded in expanding the number of legal medical cannabis patients, turning the tide of public indifference on the issue, and correcting media bias and error.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Take a Closer Look: Cannabis Is Medicine is an ASAF project in which our staff and constituents participate in a variety outreach efforts designed to increase awareness about the scientific evidence and research surrounding medical cannabis, and facilitate our ability to build coalitions. ASAF is helping to create new partners in the fight to secure safe and legal access through public education, attending and presenting at important health and medical conferences, hosting forums and briefings, and through proactive media campaigns. Litigation to force a change in the Department of Health and Human Services position on medical cannabis under the Data Quality Act is an important federal component of the project.
