Cannabis in recovery housing
 

I understand that cannabis can be used medically, but for the sake of people that cannabis can destroy their recovery, there needs to be 100% substance free housing. If medical cannabis is to be allowed in recovery housing, the housing needs to be labeled differently- have two different levels of housing: one that supports medical cannabis and one that is 100% substance free. People need to know what type of recovery housing they are going into in order to protect their chance at long term recovery. Allowing cannabis in all recovery housing can be incredibly harmful to people's recovery. I know that if I had been around cannabis or people that were high when I was in early recovery, I would not still be sober.
