MERCY is donating resources to help establish e-mail lists, phone-trees and other lines of communications
dedicated to folks and issues local to the area.
It is a public meeting and there is no medicating or open exchange of resources at the site at this time.
If resources available, places and times to exchange will be networked as can.

More on Meet Ups and Meeting places
Activists are constantly on the look-out for someplace public to meet and
assist non-cardholders get with the program as well as some place to privately
exchange patient resources.
Until then we conduct "private" activity in such places as parking
lots and state parks - like in the bad old days.
To satisfy all the Card-Holder community needs, they need Places -
- to generally Meet. Public, non-medicating, non-resource-exchanging.
From Meet-Ups to Town Halls.
- to Exchange. With facilities for cardholders to be out of public view.
- to Medicate. Sufficient environmental, health and safety (fire) control -
as well as legal (OMMP protocol) - to allow smoking,
vaporizing, etc.

restrooms, wheelchair access, etc.

Card-holders and Non.

More on what we want places for.
Distribution of Medicine. First, Is always SUBJECT to AVAILABILITY!
We try to accomidate the public and cardholders with their issues without

if we can help it.
and, especially NOTE: No Consideration Allowed.
We distribute and facilitate environments for medicating.

This is for public (non-c/h) to come in and meet c/h,

Other potential sources for medicine > ie- OGF

Hi! Last night we had a very
fun, though respectful,
celebration of life for our
fallen sister, "Mom" Jaycee
Jones. We had a drawing, and
three of the card holders at
the meeting won three dubies,
some bud, a green cookie and
some seeds. The dubies and the
seeds were donated by Sister
Anne of the Order of the
Compassionate Sisters of the
the Compassionate Heart of
Salem. Thank you Sister Anne.
Various of the Brothers and
Sisters donated the bud that
the lucky winners of the
drawing won last night as part
of our lost sister, Sister
Jaycee's celebration of life.
Jaycee will be missed since
she could make a succinct
quip, make a point and leave
us smiling. The cookies were
donated by Brother Sunny and
our special guest Dorothy
Eastofkansas! Thank you
Brother Sunny and Sister
Dorothy Eastofkansas. We had a
lot of fun and answered all
the new folks' questions, too.
Well, we answered a lot of
questions if not all. "
