    Cannabis education amongst the Coney Island Community members on all levels must be educated about the new wave of cannabis entrepuner potential and the businesses that are being created and welcomed into our commnities. For years our communites have been subjected to prejudice and poor treatment because of their love, use or connection with cannabis, therefore resulting in a negative stigma that leads to discrimination based off their personal beliefs. our communities deserve educational workshops and training resources that show them a way to break into this billion dollar industry from cultivation to advocacy. Coney Island is a low income community whom most of the black and brown residents have been negatively impacted by the justices of possesing cannabis although it had been decriminalized since 1977. This is now a regulated industry in New York and the potential to grow economically can be extremely beneficialto our community of Coney Island.

    Describe the challenge you want to address:
    It is imperative that the Coney Island community receives comprehensive cannabis education across all levels to understand the burgeoning potential of cannabis entrepreneurship and the businesses emerging in our neighborhoods. Historically, our communities have endured prejudice and mistreatment due to their association with cannabis, fostering a detrimental stigma that breeds discrimination based on personal beliefs. Therefore, there is an urgent need for educational workshops and training resources to empower our community members to navigate and thrive within this billion-dollar industry, spanning from cultivation to advocacy.\n\nConey Island, predominantly a low-income community, has disproportionately felt the adverse effects of cannabis-related injustices, particularly affecting its Black and Brown residents, despite the decriminalization of cannabis since 1977. With the cannabis industry now regulated in New York, there exists a remarkable opportunity for economic growth that could greatly benefit our community in Coney Island.
    Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:
    Our organization aims to establish a series of cannabis-focused entrepreneurial programs designed to offer training, seminars, resources, and free business start-up consulting to small business owners in Coney Island. These programs will extend support in navigating official applications, particularly aiding qualified individuals from the local community to venture into newly emerging sectors within the cannabis industry.\n\nOur primary objective is to ensure that federally regulated and law-abiding shops and services are strategically positioned within our communities. Additionally, we aim to inspire others to create new and innovative cannabis businesses that cater to our communities and cultures in a proper and safe manner.
