Why the Social Equity Program Matters
The Social Equity Program is central to the City of Los Angeles’ mission to empower individuals disproportionately impacted by prior cannabis criminalization. Verified SEIAs in Los Angeles gain exclusive access to cannabis business licenses for retail, delivery, and cultivation through December 31, 2025.
These licenses represent a unique opportunity to enter and thrive in Los Angeles’ regulated cannabis market, contributing to greater inclusion and equity in the industry.
