Over 200,000 cannabis jobs were created in 2019 and it's expected for 414,000 jobs to be created in the US by 2021.

Over half a million people are arrested for cannabis-related offenses every year.
Americans with a criminal record – whether it’s s for a misdemeanor or a felony – can find it harder to get a job and find housing.
Green School takes repairing the harms caused by marijuana arrests, prosecution, and incarceration seriously, and we believe in reparative justice.
That’s why some Green School online courses will be free to anyone who has been a target of our criminal justice system based solely on cannabis related charges.
Full Green School scholarships will be offered for a select number of grant recipients based on merit and need.
Green School will work with organizations dedicated to expunging records of those previously incarcerated for cannabis offenses.
