NDICA (National Diversity & Inclusion Cannabis Alliance) has partnered with humble+fume and Windship Trading on providing a mentorship program for BIPOC entrepreneurs to gain knowledge, insight, and experience within the cannabis industry. The new mentorship program strives to break down ethical and equitable barriers impacting BIPOC communities.
About the Program
