MCC Overview
Our Mission
The MCC is a nonprofit organization founded in 2006 for the purpose of providing education and resources that support the advancement of healthcare services provided to patients who have a physician’s approval for the use of cannabis.
MCC Classes
The MCC is located at 52 North Mentor Avenue in Pasadena, California. Over 3,000 participants including physicians, patients, attorneys, dispensary operators, cultivators, law enforcement officers and municipal officials have attended classes and workshops provided by the MCC.
Medical Cannabis Information and Resource Center
Although many cities still have an Ordinance prohibiting a “retail license” for the sale of cannabis products, the Medical Cannabis “Information and Resource Center” is a viable option.
The Information and Resource Center can include a cannabis bookstore, cultivation classes, physician medical cannabis approvals, information services regarding the medicinal use of cannabinoids, the Department of Public Health ID Card Program and the SB 94 Regulatory Information.
The Information and Resource Center can be used to effectively generate community support for the City’s approval of a Medical Cannabis Retail License.

January 2018 the CDSS approved the MCC to teach a course on Senate Bill 94 for Licensees of Health Care Facilities. The course is currently taught under the CDSS Continuing Education Program for the Re-certification of Health Care Facility Licensees and Administrators.
