Marijuana Education and Safety

Background - Medical Marijuana Operation and Oversight Grant

In November 2018, Michigan voters approved Proposal 1, creating the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act (MRTMA). This Act delegates responsibility for marijuana licensing, regulation and enforcement to the Michigan Department of Regulatory Affairs (LARA). LARA’s Marijuana Regulatory Agency (MRA) is responsible for the oversight of medical and adult-use (recreational) marijuana in Michigan.
