Trulieve’s Community Outreach Programs Making an Impact

·

·

As Florida’s leading medical cannabis provider, Trulieve is doing more than supplying products — they’re actively building bridges within communities across the Sunshine State. Their mission? To educate, empower, and elevate Florida residents through inclusive community outreach and strategic partnerships that address real needs.

Educating for Change

Trulieve’s outreach programs in Florida begin with education — especially in communities where cannabis stigma is still strong. Their dispensary education events offer patients access to knowledgeable staff, doctors, and wellness advocates who provide guidance on conditions treatable with medical cannabis, dosing methods, and Florida’s medical marijuana card process.

They also regularly host Cannabis 101 sessions, often in underserved areas, to ensure accurate, inclusive, and accessible cannabis information is within everyone’s reach.

Partnering for Purpose

Trulieve partners with several Florida-based nonprofit organizations to deepen their impact:

  • ALS Association Florida Chapter – Trulieve supports this organization through patient education and awareness campaigns, helping those with ALS understand how cannabis may ease symptoms like muscle spasticity and chronic pain.
  • Epilepsy Alliance Florida – As part of their focus on neurological conditions, Trulieve works closely with this organization to inform patients and caregivers about potential cannabis therapies for seizures and other epilepsy-related issues.
  • Florida Justice Center – Trulieve collaborates with this legal services nonprofit to help expunge cannabis-related criminal records, often holding expungement clinics and events. This aligns with Trulieve’s dedication to cannabis reform and equitable justice.
  • Veterans Organizations – In Florida, Trulieve supports groups like Disabled American Veterans (DAV) to ensure veterans have access to medical cannabis and understand the qualifying conditions they may be eligible under, such as PTSD and chronic pain.
Supporting Diverse Voices

Trulieve’s supplier diversity initiative in Florida has paved the way for minority-owned brands to gain shelf space and visibility. This includes fostering relationships with Black-owned farms, Latinx entrepreneurs, and women-led product lines.

They’ve also partnered with Minorities for Medical Marijuana (M4MM) in Orlando to sponsor expungement events, voter registration drives, and cannabis job fairs — giving Floridians a fair shot in the emerging green economy.

Community Events with Local Flavor

From Miami to Tallahassee, Trulieve supports wellness events, farmers markets, and neighborhood pop-ups where community members can access product samples (where legal), speak to experts, and even receive help applying for their Florida medical marijuana cards.

A Deep Florida Commitment

Founded and headquartered in Tallahassee, Trulieve’s Florida roots run deep. Their outreach reflects a homegrown commitment to building healthier communities through education, opportunity, and responsible access to plant-based medicine.

Through these efforts, Trulieve isn’t just changing the cannabis conversation — they’re helping shape a more compassionate, informed, and inclusive Florida.
