Our Mission
Our mission is twofold. Mississippi Women in Cannabis (MWIC) is a part of the larger movement of a fair, just, and equitable society for women as a whole.
We are committed to ensuring that the cannabis industry in Mississippi is fair, equitable, and just. By empowering women at all levels of the industry, we help them excel as leaders and change agents. Through exposure and education, we provide networking, advocacy, career opportunities, and intentional mentorship to support their growth and success.
