Restoring Patients’ Right to Heal

The ACHEM Freedom Initiative is a collaborative effort to restore and protect the civil and medical rights of cannabis patients. We are developing a comprehensive set of resources and services to support patients and their legal teams.

In AFI’s first year, our goal is to:

  • Compile a library of letters, data, and other resources to support the legal defense of patients with various medical conditions
  • Train medical and legal experts to assist patients experiencing biased treatment and unjust litigation
  • Strengthen collaboration between healthcare and legal professionals for a unified defense strategy

Special thanks to our partners, the National Association of Black Cannabis Lawyers (NABCL) and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation, for their participation and unwavering support. Together, we can create a more just and equitable society for all cannabis patients.

We appreciate your help in this effort to assist patients. Your generous contribution will make a significant impact in the lives of those unjustly persecuted for their medical choices.
