At Native Sun, we believe cannabis companies have a responsibility to support the communities most impacted by prohibition. That’s why we’re proud to sponsor a Free CORI Sealing Event in Boston—a meaningful opportunity for individuals to take a step toward a fresh start with real support and guidance. In partnership with Mass CultivatED and Greater Boston Legal Services, this event offers free, on-site legal assistance to help eligible individuals seal their Massachusetts criminal records (CORI).

Why CORI Sealing Matters
For many people in Massachusetts, a criminal record can create barriers long after a case is closed. A CORI (Criminal Offender Record Information) can impact: job opportunities, housing access, education pathways and financial stability. Sealing your CORI can help reduce those barriers and open new doors.
Benefits of CORI sealing include:
- Improved access to employment
- Increased housing eligibility
- Greater personal privacy
- More opportunities for long-term stability
This clinic is designed to make the process accessible, supportive, and completely free.
What to Expect at the Clinic
Whether you’re just getting started or need help navigating paperwork, this is a hands-on, supportive environment designed to meet you where you are. During the event, experienced legal professionals from Greater Boston Legal Services will be available to:
- Review your CORI eligibility
- Help complete the sealing process
- Answer questions about your rights
- Provide guidance on next steps
What to Bring
No appointment is necessary — simply stop by during event hours. To make the most of your visit, it’s recommended to bring:
- A valid photo ID
- Any relevant court documents (if available)
Native Sun’s Role: Supporting Second Chances
As a Massachusetts cannabis company, Native Sun is committed to equity, access, and community impact. We believe that access to opportunity should be inclusive—and that means actively working to remove barriers where we can. At the event, our team will also be available to:
- Share information about job opportunities
- Answer questions about working in the cannabis industry
- Connect attendees with future employment pathways
Cannabis, Community & Equity in Boston
This event reflects a broader movement within the Boston cannabis community: repairing harm caused by past policies while building a more equitable future. Partnerships with organizations like Mass CultivatED help create pathways into the legal cannabis industry—especially for individuals and communities historically impacted by prohibition. These initiatives are about more than cannabis—they’re about access, education, and long-term opportunity.
