On their About Us page Gorilla Wellness explains their mission to rewrite the cannabis narrative through these steps:

  1. Empowering the Black community by reinvesting our knowledge and resources back into South Central LA
  2. Inspiring individuals from all walks of life to explore the benefits of cannabis.
  3. Uplifting the next generation of Black entrepreneurs through our cannabis equity training center.
  4. Confronting racial injustice perpetuated by the cannabis industry.

Gorilla RX’s website has some great info about their story starting out as a cannabis infused tonic on the stores of Whole Foods, and continuing on their journey with the LA county’s social equity program and a pivot into the retail dispensary model.  Hosting community events, creating spaces for black voices, and advocating for transparency in the cannabis policy process, Gorilla Wellness takes community investment to a whole new level.
