Do you want to have an influential role in strengthening and protecting the industry we’ve built together? This is your chance. Joining NCIA’s Board of Directors is the premier opportunity to contribute to the progress and success of the cannabis industry.

As the only national trade association for the industry, joining NCIA’s Board of Directors is the premier opportunity to contribute to the progress and success of the cannabis industry. NCIA’s Board of Directors is the executive body that establishes NCIA’s broad objectives and strategic direction. As such, the board has authority over NCIA’s bylaws, mission, budget, and provides oversight to ensure the organization continues to serve our members’ interests as the industry grows and matures.

NCIA prides itself on truly being an organization run for and by its members. Now until Friday, April 27, NCIA will be accepting nominations for candidates to run for the Board of Directors.

WHO CAN BE NOMINATED?
Any representative of a current NCIA Sustaining Member business may run for a seat on the board with the nomination by another representative of any other NCIA member-business.

For current NCIA members wishing to nominate a candidate, nominations are being accepted through this online form. Representatives of Basic or Sponsoring level member businesses who are interested in serving on the board are encouraged to contact us at membership@thecannabisindustry.org or (888) 683-5650 to upgrade your membership before seeking nomination. You can also ask another NCIA member to nominate you by reviewing our member directory!
