Facilitator Spotlight

Stephanie Arthalony, CRP

Stephanie worked as a clinical research coordinator in Interventional Radiology for more than 14 years before surviving gun violence in 2017. Her personal experience with PTSD led her to become a medical cannabis patient and sparked her passion for cannabis education and advocacy.

Stephanie has worked at Trinity Centers since 2019, focusing on helping patients understand cannabis as medicine and navigate the process of obtaining their Illinois medical cannabis cards. She is passionate about making cannabis education accessible and empowering others with the knowledge to make informed decisions about their care.

Stephanie graduated summa cum laude from the Medical Office Assistant program and previously served on the Illinois Central College Cannabis Advisory Board. Drawing on her clinical research background, professional experience, and personal journey as a medical cannabis patient, she educates others about cannabis chemistry, responsible use, and its medicinal applications.
