New Jersey Laws

New Jersey’s medical program was established under the New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Act (CUMMA) in 2009 and expanded by the Jake Honig Compassionate Use Medical Cannabis Act in 2019. The program is regulated by the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (NJ-CRC) and helps registered patients access cannabis-based medicine from licensed Alternative Treatment Centers (ATCs).

  • Patients must be New Jersey residents with valid medical cannabis cards issued by the state.
  • Recreational use is legal for adults 21+ in New Jersey.
  • Home cultivation is strictly prohibited for both medical patients and recreational users under New Jersey law.
  • Out-of-state medical cards are not recognized – only New Jersey residents can participate in the medical program.
  • Out-of-state visitors who are 21+ can purchase recreational cannabis but cannot access medical program.
  • Medical marijuana cards are valid for 1 year with renewal reminders sent 60 days before expiration.
