The History of New Hampshire Marijuana
Medical Marijuana:
HB 573 passed in 2013 which allows patients with qualifying medical conditions to register with the state Department of Health and Human Services to possess up to 2 ounces of marijuana at a time, known as the Therapeutic Cannabis Program. The Department was also tasked to select 4 non-profit alternative treatment centers (ATCs) to grow and sell marijuana to patients. As of May 29, 2015, the department announced the 3 selected applicants to operate the state’s first 3 ATC’s which are geographically spread out throughout the state.
