NCPIC -National Cannabis People's Information Centre


FACEBOOK GROUP-
To pursue the legalisation of cannabis, and to promote intelligent research without agendas, into therapeutic use of cannabis. This Facebook Group aims to provide information about recreational and medicinal cannabis use in an unbiased way free of 'drug war' propaganda and lies.

Cannabis has been used by over a third of the Australian population. Many of those people use once or twice and never use again. Some Australians become regular users and use the drug for many years for a large range of medical uses or as a safer alternative to other recreational drugs, many of which are addictive or have other serious health risks unlike cannabis.

There are a wide range of medicinal benefits associated with cannabis without the side effects associated with many prescription medicines that can affect the users life in a very negative way.

In recent times we have begun to better understand some of the benefits associated with cannabis use. As a result, there has been a marked increase in people searching for accurate information regarding it's use.

This Facebook Group aims to provide information about recreational and medicinal cannabis use in an unbiased way free of 'drug war' propaganda and lies.
