Acting CCC Chair Concepcion & Commissioner Camargo to address EON supporters at Celebration of Equity Champions

EON is honored to recognize Cannabis Control Commission Acting Chair Ava Callender Concepcion, and other government and community leaders, for their contributions to equitable opportunity at our Celebration of Cannabis Equity Champions next Tuesday, Dec. 19 at 6 p.m. at New Dia Cannabis Co.’s Fenway location.

The Cannabis Control Commission promulgated historic regulations to rein in host community agreements and require municipal equity policies after a thoughtful, inclusive, and deliberative process.

We’re grateful to all of the Commissioners for their accessibility, engagement, and focus on equity — and for attending our regulatory review listening session this summer to hear directly from you.

Acting Chair Concepcion has shown tremendous leadership and stewardship of the Cannabis Control Commission during a period of difficult transitions and distractions. Her depth of knowledge from various regulatory review working groups, inclusive approach to facilitating, and focus on impact and equity helped the CCC navigate a lengthy public regulatory revision process that produced regulations the Commonwealth should be proud of, and she has continued to provide stability and progress since.
