The Phoenix March

     
Women  for Marijuana

             Saving Lives and Promoting Peace through Advocacy and Education                                                                                                                                                                        
    The Phoenix March is a non-profit organization in Phoenix, Arizona. 

    Our mission is to empower and educate women to choose a natural, safer alternative to prescription drugs and alcohol.  We provide a local community resource to access important information, find neighborhood organizations, and network with other women.  With the recent passing of Proposition 203, folks are interested to know the benefits of marijuana. Women need to know the facts.

While Alcohol remains Legal and claims
approximately  85,000 lives per year according to the
Journal of the American Medical Association, possession of any Marijuana at all is still a FELONY in Arizona.
              





 



Why women? 
                       

    Women are the caretakers.  Women are our mothers.  Women are the keepers of the family health. 
Women provide nutrition, guidance, medicine, and comfort to the rest of the family.  Who better to benefit from both the comfort and the truth about marijuana than women? A comfortable woman can better serve her family.
 

   
An educated
woman may recommend the natural, safer alternative to her parents, husband, or children when they are faced with a doctor's prescription for pharmaceutical drugs.  An educated woman knows pharmaceuticals kill over 100,000 people per year, while marijuana has never cause a single death, ever.

  
Women want to keep their families safe.


    An educated mother knows the dangers of alcohol.  She may recommend the natural, safer alternative to keep her children safer when they are faced with a choice.  We all prefer they stay sober, and never experiment with any drugs or alcohol, but we must keep our eyes open.  In some cases, it can mean life or death.


    Everyone is well aware of the hazards of drinking and driving, but there are many other societal troubles associated with alcohol.   Binge drinking kills about 50,000 children per year.  Parents are unaware of the legal but very poisonous effects of drinking too much too quickly.  Children are experimenting sooner than parents think, and with deadly results.

   Mothers can keep their daughters safer by explaining the risks related to alcohol and dating.  Young girls are less likely to end up in a bad situation if they are not numb with alcohol.  Alcohol lowers inhibitions and causes reckless behavior.
Alcohol has been statistically proven to be a source of assault, date rape, and domestic violence.

An educated woman is a force to be reckoned with.

   We all know someone who has been hurt by alcohol or prescribed medications.  It is time to let the truth be heard.  Whether you already have an affinity for cannabis, or you are new to exploring this option, we welcome you.

   The Phoenix March does not hold monthly meetings, but we encourage you to take part in the Phoenix NORML (National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) meetings that are free and held currently at the Firehouse Gallery in downtown Phoenix.  Please visit PhoenixNORML.net for all the details. 

    The founders of the Phoenix March started Phoenix NORML meetings back up locally for community and education in  June of 2008.  Nancy went on to help the Marijuana Policy Project secure our current medicinal marijuana rights in November of 2010, and Kathy still sits as current Co-Chair at Phoenix NORML.
