Public Act 12-55, An Act Concerning the Palliative Use of Marijuana, was passed by the Connecticut General Assembly and signed into law on May 31st, 2012. Patients who are currently receiving medical treatment for a debilitating medical conditions set out in the law may qualify for a temporary registration certificate.
 
To qualify, a patient must also be at least 18 years of age and a Connecticut resident. Each patient may also register one primary caregiver if the need for a caregiver is documented by the patient's physician.
 
The temporary registration certificate application is available online and registration involves a three step process:
  • Step 1: The physician initiates the registration process by logging into a secure, online system and certifying their patient.
  • Step 2: After the physician electronically submits a valid certification, their patient can access the online system to complete the patient portion of the application. 
  • Step 3: If the physician certifies the need for a primary caregiver, the caregiver can log in after the patient, and complete the application.
For more information about what you need to register, please check our "How to Register" page.
 
New information on the Medical Marijuana Program will be made available on this website as it becomes available. Please continue to visit our website at www.ct.gov/dcp/mmp or subscribe to medical marijuana updates by registering for e-alerts  on the DCP website.
