Latinas in Cannabis is hosting their third annual Summit this Saturday, September 27, dedicated to bringing together a diverse community of Latina advocates, entrepreneurs, creators and professionals.
This year, the one-day event will be taking place at The River LA in Frogtown, and is intentionally curated for personal and professional development, relationship-building and opportunities for career advancement. The summit not only features panels with trailblazing Latinas in the cannabis industry, but also creates a safe space for open dialogue around advocacy, community stigma, cannabis and motherhood, and cultural celebration perfectly timed with Hispanic Heritage Month.
Founded in 2020, Latinas in Cannabis works to connect, empower and celebrate Latinas who work, or aspire to work, in the cannabis industry through its online community, in-person events and resources to dismantle cultural and gender stigmas that create barriers to professional success.
"When I founded Latinas in Cannabis, my mission was to create spaces where Latinas could feel seen, celebrated and empowered. Three years later, this Summit has become more than a gathering, it's a movement that proves our community is essential to the future of cannabis," said Susie Plascencia, founder and CEO of Latinas in Cannabis.
