Supporting the Autism Community
Register Roll-up: Change for Autism
Join us in April to help make a meaningful difference for individuals and families living with autism. Throughout the month, patients and customers in Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, and Maryland are invited to round up their purchase or donate a specific amount at the register in support of the Arizona Autism Coalition and Hope Grows for Autism. These organizations are dedicated to advocacy, education, and research to strengthen and support those affected by autism.
The Arizona Autism Coalition is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families. In partnership with organizations across Arizona, they expand access to vital resources and lead collaborative advocacy to drive lasting systems change, building a stronger future for Arizona’s autism community.
“Many thanks to Trulieve for their support of our mission to serve Arizona families! By sharing resources, lifting up voices, and advocating for system change, we help individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder live full and meaningful lives.”
— Mary Wetherell, Marketing & Member Services Director
Arizona Autism Coalition
Hope Grows for Autism is a nonprofit organization that supports individuals with autism and their families by advocating for cannabinoid‑based medicine as a treatment option for autism‑related symptoms. The organization focuses on education, research, and policy advocacy to reduce stigma, expand legal access, and help families navigate safe, informed use of medical cannabis while building a supportive community.
Local Action, Lasting Impact
Autism affects millions of children and families every day, with the number of diagnoses continuing to grow each year. This underscores the importance of awareness, access to care, and strong community‑based support for individuals on the autism spectrum and those who care for them.
Trulieve actively supports local organizations that expand access and provide vital resources. These efforts make a meaningful impact by strengthening families and building more inclusive communities.
