Our Services

  • 01.

    Cannabis compliance and licensing

    CRA requirements are detailed, overlapping, and regularly updated. SES translates state regulations into workable systems: license applications, Metrc compliance, audit preparation, and ongoing CRA alignment.

  • 02.

    Social equity program development

    A social equity plan that meets CRA requirements is one thing. One that holds up to scrutiny, qualifies for grant funding, and creates traceable community impact is another. SES builds the second kind.

  • 03.

    Grant writing and funding strategy

    The CRA Social Equity Grant Program awards up to $10,000 per eligible licensee annually. SES has received this funding directly. We help you structure your application, meet the eligibility requirements, and deploy the funds correctly.

  • 04.

    CRA All-Star certification support

    Gold-level All-Star certification unlocks grant eligibility, demonstrates commitment to equity benchmarks the state has set, and publicly distinguishes your business in a crowded market. SES holds Gold. We help you get there.

    State CRA Application Package

  • 08.

    Social Equity + Community Benefit Package

    Your social equity plan is more than a requirement. This package builds a CRA-aligned social equity plan, corporate spend documentation, and community reinvestment strategy that demonstrates measurable impact. Strengthening your application and your All-Star eligibility.
