Celebrating Women’s History Month
Trulieve is proud to celebrate Women’s History Month in March! We’re celebrating the amazing contributions of women in our communities, leaders in our company, and pioneers in the cannabis industry nationwide. Our teams will take part in outreach and volunteer efforts throughout the month.
Through our National Partnership, Trulieve supports Women Grow in its mission to connect, educate, and empower women throughout all segments of the cannabis industry by hosting a four-part certification education series. Our Supplier Diversity Bootcamp is designed to prepare women for investment opportunities to achieve success in cannabis.
Local and regional organizations that Trulieve will be giving back to this month include:
