NORML Athletics of N. Carolina

NORML Athletics of N. Carolina NORML Athletics We are primarily based in North Carolina, but encourage other state and local chapters of NORML to become involved.

Introduction:
NORML Athletics is an organization that breaks stereotypes and raises awareness about the benefits of deliberate, informed cannabis ingestion. Consider starting your own chapter wherever you are...

Mission:
Through networking we encourage people to do their research about what healthy living looks like and how to make progress. We believe cannabinoids play a vital role in sports rec

overy and a higher quality of life. Function:
NORML Athletics functions as a vehicle to educate the public about the benefits of deliberate ingestion of cannabinoids. To break the lazy stoner stereotype, we first showcase elite athletes who are out of the cannabis closet. Secondly we encourage local NORML chapters to become involved in charity sports events (like 5K runs) that support charities for people suffering from diseases that cannabinoids can help. Conclusion:
There are many examples of pro-cannabis athletes and active people that are living healthy lifestyles. We aim to break the misconception that people who consume cannabis also have sedentary lifestyles. NORML Athletics is an organization that encourages activists to lead by example.
