When parents need their children taken care of while they are at work, they can drop off their children at a day care or when someone is sick they can go to a doctor’s office and see the doctor. A new business that is emerging throughout the United States is medicinal marijuana collectives, more commonly known as medicinal marijuana clinics. Marijuana has been a controversial issue in the United States for many decades and the legalization of medicinal marijuana has been a much-heated debate as well. However despite the controversies, medicinal marijuana clinics, much like a pharmacy is still a business that provides a purpose and has the same up’s and downs such as group conflicts, interpersonal conflicts, etc just like any other businesses and the clinic that I have consulted with in hopes of improving group productivity is BCC of San Diego. When people think of medicinal marijuana, there is a negative connotation associated with marijuana. Though there is merit in this belief, the evolution of marijuana has changed to provide medicinal purposes. According to www.chrisconrad.com, in 1996, California was one of the first states to legalize medicinal marijuana passing Proposition 215 for seriously ill patients. The proposition ensures that seriously ill Californians have the right to obtain and use marijuana for medicinal purposes where medical use is deem appropriate and has been recommended by a physician who had determined that the person’s health would benefit from the use of marijuana in treatment of cancer,
