Moriah watched her daughter struggle to survive chemotherapy, which compelled her to seek help from experts in cannabis. As a result, her family received support from Dr. Raphael Mechoulam and Moriah went on to co-found CannaMoms as a means to provide support system for other parents like herself, and to organize their stories to change voters hearts and minds about the medical efficacy of marijuana. After the State of Florida passed a Medical Marijuana Program, she was appointed to the Florida Department of Agriculture Hemp and Medical Marijuana Advisory Boards, respectively. She wrote Florida’s first CME program for physicians and continued to work on legislative policy reform, Co-Founding a new non-profit with a broader mission toward ending prohibition, the Women's Initiative for a Safe and Equitable (WISE) Florida. Moriah continues to work for Floridians to legally grow marijuana at home today.
