The Office of Cannabis Policy (OCP) is pleased to announce that OCP Director John Hudak and staff will be conducting a statewide listening tour in 2023!

There will be four community listening sessions held across the state:

Our listening tour is a significant step in the process of becoming more engaged, transparent, and accessible to all of our stakeholders. This includes medical and adult use cannabis program participants, municipalities, and members of the public. Join us to ask questions, share feedback, and learn more about Maine's regulated cannabis programs.
