DIVERSITY IN ACTION | SUCCESS CENTERS
Premiered July 2, 2020
Success Center is a community-based organization that was founded 35 years ago by Superior Court Judges in San Francisco to provide education and employment opportunities to youth in juvenile detention facilities. The program has recently expanded to include Equity for Industry training and workshops for those interested in the cannabis industry. Liz Jackson-Simpson, CEO of Success Centers, and Angela White, Program Manager for Equity for Industry, talk with Montel about the program and the challenges minorities face when looking to enter the cannabis industry, and how their programs address those challenges.
