The War on Drugs has disproportionately harmed communities of color.

People have lost jobs, education, housing, their liberty, their families, and their lives to this War. Now they deserve equity, justice, and repair: ownership of cannabis businesses, full and automatic expungement, and community reinvestment of tax revenue and corporate philanthropy. The Cage-Free organizations help cannabis companies, patients, and consumers engage with this work.

This led us to develop the next stage of Cage-Free Cannabis:
a worker cooperative called Cage-Free Cooperative, focused exclusively on repairing harms of the War on Drugs.

Cage-Cooperative is made up of our for-profit venture Cage-Free Cannabis and our non-profit Cage-Free Repair.

CAGE-FREE CANNABIS

is currently working with other cooperatives to sell cannabis products grown, packaged, marketed and distributed by people who have been effected by the War on Drugs. As a cooperative the profits of this venture will be shared by all.

CAGE-FREE REPAIR

has been doing vital work since 2017 to advocate for social equity and accountability within cannabis industry and to provide resources for anyone who has been impacted by the criminal justice system.

Incarcerated trans women deserve

Just hours after his 2025 inauguration, President Trump issued an Executive Order that denies transgender women legal recognition under federal law by transferring them to men’s prisons and denying them necessary healthcare.

The risk of physical and sexual abuse to transgender individuals is significantly higher than for everyone else (37% compared to 3%). That risk is even greater when they are placed in men’s facilities. According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons there are currently 22 transgender women housed in women’s prisons and there are potentially thousands more.

Cage-Free Repair is dedicated to repairing the damage caused by the U.S. justice system, and we are launching a new aid fund to assist these individuals with grants of $100. This money will allow them to obtain basic items from the prison commissary, support family visitation, and help them in their reentry with things like housing assistance.
