This is the section for our list of Meetings & Meet-Ups, etc. in Oregon (cat/s= Oregon, Medical).   For Clinics, go to our Clinics List.  For Forums, go to our Forums List.  For even more Organizations, go to our Orgs section header/index.  For even more Resources, try our Links section. Meetings & Meet-Ups ( Meets.net ) If you're a CardHolder (c/h) who wants to network Resources, see the List.   Caveat emptor! Each organizer has their own rules and regulations, please study & research thoroughly before committing resources.   At these meeting and meet-ups hosted by individuals and non-profit organizations - * Patients – current and to be – can Ask questions on all topics and get answers from those who have already experienced the issues. * Patients can meet with Caregivers - Caregivers can meet with Patients. * Growing Patients and CareGivers can Ask grow questions and get answers from Oregon's best medical marijuana growers. * Non-CardHolders and CardHolders alike can Learn the legal details of Oregon's Medical Marijuana Act and the most recent laws and rules changes – and what they can do about them. If you're a person or group with a meeting or meet-up to Post, see Tools section with Bulletin Board and FeedBack. If you're looking to make one happen near you, see Tips and Tricks. We try to maintain a brochure (WORD document) with this info, click here to review. (BroMedO3a) We are also working on Resources for those contemplating on trying it.   Empowering those who want to set it up so that one of the people, groups or orgs currently doing Meetings & Meet-Ups can come into town and do one, or do it themselves.   Just borrow their resources, like places to meet.   This would be advantageous for remote areas where it is really difficult for people with disabilities to get places.   For example, a "How To" library on issues around Meetings & Meet-Ups and related info and other resources for them.   We also want to link to CareGiver Referral / Match-Up and tools for Growing Yourself. Also, we're working on building networks by providing an email-list and organizing a guild with web assets like a private forum for secure chats.  Things like that. Want to Help?  Got an Idea?  To leave a question -or- comment about a Meeting, Meet-Ups or an Org or this page in general, See the Bulletin Board, below.
