Diane speaking on the NWA panel
4/29/2011 by Diane Fornbacher – As the NORML Women’s Alliance (NWA) Vice Chair and Grassroots Activism Editor at Freedomisgreen.com, I was very proud to speak on the ‘Closing The Cannabis Gender Gap’ panel. I spoke about being a mother, cannabis reform activism and the D.A.R.E. program.
I was joined by Sabrina Fendrick, Chair of the NWA (who also moderated the panel) as well as Georgia Edson from Mile High NORML/Herbal Connections, Kyndra Miller of Cannabusiness Law, and Stacia Cosner who is the Associate Director of Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP). We are all members of the NWA Steering Committee.
The Ballroom at the Grand Hyatt was packed and the audience was so beautiful and supportive. We received a standing ovation and our luncheon following the panel was completely sold out.

Special thank you to Madeline Martinez, the Executive Director of Oregon NORML and proud Member of the Board of NORML.
