Our inaugural project has been a pilot program in New York, where state regulators are in the process of implementing legalization legislation. 

The main pillars of that program are:

– Outreach (identify and contact legacy operators)

– Needs Assessment (identify barriers to entry)

– Regulatory barriers

– Other barriers

– Policy Development (remove regulatory barriers)

– Public Education (build public awareness)

– Constituent Services

Constituent Services in New York include support for:

– Forming UNLOC: legacy operators association

– Media training, coordination, interview support

– Training workshops and application assistance

– Individual & group mentoring, networking events

– Legacy + legal business intros & relationships
