What Makes Oz Dispensary Different?
The Mission
At Oz Dispensary, cannabis is more than a business. It’s a second chance. As a CAURD-licensed dispensary, our foundation is built on restorative justice, turning a history of hardship into an opportunity to serve our community. We believe in the healing power of cannabis and the healing power of equity, and we aim to extend both to every customer who walks through our doors.
Rooted in Staten Island
Oz isn’t just Staten Island’s dispensary. It’s Staten Island’s story. From a borough known for grit, resilience, and self-determination, we carry forward that same spirit. Our roots here mean we’re not just selling cannabis, we’re helping write the next chapter of fairness and opportunity in our community.
Family-First Approach
The CAURD license gave us a second chance, and we treat every customer with that same respect and grace. At Oz, you’re not just another transaction, you’re part of a community that believes in lifting each other up, one conversation and one choice at a time.

What does it mean to be a CAURD-licensed dispensary?
CAURD stands for Conditional Adult-Use Retail Dispensary, a license created by New York State to give people directly impacted by cannabis prohibition the first opportunity to participate in the legal industry. For Oz, this isn’t just paperwork — it’s the reason we exist. Our license reflects a story of second chances, restorative justice, and equity, and we carry that forward in how we serve every customer.
