Compassionate Certification Centers, a national medical cannabis health care network, will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its new Butler office on Friday, Jan. 26.

The office provides medical cannabis certifications and evaluations, as well as guidance and continued treatment care for eligible patients who have been diagnosed with one of 17 state qualifying conditions that can be treated with medical marijuana.

“I am a strong advocate for options, especially when it comes to health care decisions for individuals and families. I am honored to be a part of this ribbon cutting ceremony at CCC in Butler. We are here to usher in a new year and a new era where medical cannabis alternatives are a legal option for Pennsylvanians,” state Rep. Brian Ellis, R-11th, said in a news release.
