About the State Cannabis Network
Connecting Cannabis Across the United States
The State Cannabis Network (SCN) operates more than 50 independent, state-specific cannabis websites. Each site provides local news, research, and industry information related to cannabis, hemp, and CBD. Together, these sites form a national system designed to inform the public and link cannabis professionals in every state.
What We Do
CONNECT
SCN links local cannabis businesses with the people who use their products or services, and with other professionals in the field. Through our network, visitors can:
- Find licensed dispensaries and cannabis delivery services nearby,
- Learn about new local products, promotions, and events,
- Locate verified cannabis-related services in their community,
- Access medical providers who offer cannabis certification,
- Identify suppliers and partners for business operations, and
- Explore resources for entering the legal cannabis market.
INFORM
Each site compiles up-to-date information about:
- Cannabis and hemp laws for each state,
- Medical and recreational use rules,
- Certified physicians and patient services, and
- State-level research, data, and policy updates.
The SCN’s goal is to help residents, patients, and professionals understand how cannabis rules and practices differ from state to state.
How We Help The Public
While many SCN programs focus on industry development, the network also serves everyday users, patients, and community members who seek reliable information and affordable access to medical and recreational cannabis. Through its state-specific websites and local partnerships, SCN helps:
- Customers find quick answers about cannabis laws and how they apply within their state.
- Visitors locate dispensaries and delivery services currently licensed and open to the public.
- Patients obtain affordable medical cannabis certifications through verified healthcare providers who offer reduced rates.
- Veterans’ connect with certification programs that provide low-cost services to qualifying veterans, often at some of the lowest prices available in the industry.
- Residents check availability of local cannabis products and verified retail listings in real time.
- Communities access local resources and advocacy groups that promote responsible cannabis education and use.
- Learners find education and training opportunities within their state. SCN partners with educational providers to offer free or low-cost courses for patients and individuals interested in entering the cannabis industry. These programs focus on developing marketable skills that can support future employment and professional growth.
This public-focused work complements SCN’s business partnerships by improving transparency, access, and understanding within each state’s cannabis market.
Support Local Businesses
SCN provides marketing support for dispensaries, delivery services, and other cannabis businesses through hyper-local SEO and targeted digital outreach. These efforts help businesses:
- Reach real customers in their city or county,
- Improve visibility in local search results,
- Promote new store openings, delivery zones, or special offers,
- Build trust with nearby customers through steady community engagement,
- Maintain compliance with state laws and responsible practices, and
- Grow with the help of data-driven marketing and technology.
Strengthen the Cannabis Ecosystem
SCN also works with medical professionals, educators, and ancillary service providers. These collaborations help expand access to reliable information and create opportunities for both new entrants and established operators. The aim is to support safe access, encourage legal compliance, and help local cannabis markets develop responsibly across the country.
Who We Work With
SCN collaborates with cannabis and hemp businesses, healthcare professionals and certifying doctors, service providers such as ancillary service providers, insurers, lawyers, bankers, marketers, policy groups, and education organizations. Each site is locally managed and designed to serve the needs of its own state’s residents and cannabis industry.
Our Mission
The mission of the State Cannabis Network is to make cannabis information accurate, accessible, and state-specific, while helping legitimate businesses operate within the law. By linking communities, patients, and professionals, SCN supports a more informed and sustainable cannabis industry across the United States.
