few weeks . He has been overwhelmed by the love and hospitality of the cannabis community and expresses his gratitude daily . His future looks brighter than ever , and his positive attitude will surely assist him as he navigates his new life .

As it has been with all those for which we ’ ve advocated — word of mouth and media is vital . CCP does not have a list of those incarcerated for cannabis . We only learned about Mace ’ s situation from another POW * we were advocating for , Trevor Saller . Saller and Mace were incarcerated together in Algoa for several years , and Saller wanted us to advocate for Mace as well . Please feel free to reach out to CCP with information about anyone you know who ’ s incarcerated for cannabis . The Canna Convict Project can be located on social media , but the best way to reach us is via email at
cannaconvict @ gmail . com .
Mace is still in need of reentry funds , so please check out his GoFundMe on the website and drop a few dollars his way if you ’ re able to do so .
If you are personally interested in expungement , please reach out to your sentencing court to find out where they are in the automatic expungement process . Also , please find the expungement form at Petition for Expungement-Marijuana-Related Offense ( s ) ( CR375 ) ( mo . gov ).
