01 · About

Spectrum Wellness Foundation exists to help people find the next right step in their healing. We provide mental wellness resources, plain-language education about Colorado's natural medicine program, and community programs for youth, veterans, and families. We are not a clinic or a dispensary — we connect people to licensed Colorado healing centers, facilitators, and therapists, and we make sure the information they need to make a safe decision is public and easy to understand.

Straight answers about natural medicine, licensing, membership, donations, and how the Foundation works.

About the Foundation
What does Spectrum Wellness Foundation do? +−

We provide mental wellness resources, education about Colorado's natural medicine program, and community programs for youth, veterans, and families. Our role is to help people understand their options and connect with licensed providers.

Is Spectrum a healing center, a clinic, or a therapy practice? +−

No. We are an education and community organization. We do not diagnose, treat, prescribe, or provide natural medicine services. When someone is looking for care, we point them toward licensed Colorado healing centers, facilitators, and therapists.

Do you provide crisis or emergency support? +−

No. If there is immediate danger, call 911. For 24/7 crisis support, call or text 988. Our crisis resources are listed at the bottom of every page.

Where do you operate? +−

Our natural medicine education and provider directories are specific to Colorado, where the state's regulated program operates. Our wellness education, youth, veteran, and community programs are open more broadly.

Finding Care
Does Spectrum recommend specific providers? +−

No. We list licensed providers and give you questions to ask. Choosing a facilitator is a personal decision, and we don't take payment for placement in our directory.

How much does a session cost? +−

Costs are set by individual healing centers and vary widely. Sessions are generally not covered by insurance. Ask any provider for full pricing before committing.

Shop and Fundraising
What are you actually selling on the shop page? +−

Spectrum Candles, youth fundraiser products, merchandise, and gift cards. No natural medicine products are sold here or anywhere else on this site to the public.

How does the youth fundraiser work? +−

Participating schools and organizations sell Spectrum products, and a share of proceeds goes back to that organization, with the rest supporting Spectrum community programs.

Membership
What is SpectrumCoin (SPC)? +−

SPC is the digital membership layer of the Spectrum ecosystem. Membership levels and benefits are explained here; staking and qualification periods are handled at SpectrumCoin.io.

Is SPC an investment? +−

No. SPC is a membership utility, not an investment product, and we make no representation about its value.

Is buying SPC the same as donating? +−

No. Purchasing SPC is a transaction, not a charitable contribution, and it is not tax-deductible.

Can I pay with crypto? +−

Not yet. SPC, ETH, SOL, and BTC are planned. We'll enable them once security, accounting, and compliance workflows are in place.

Donations and Getting Involved
Is my donation tax-deductible? +−

We're finalizing this answer with our accountants and will publish the Foundation's tax status and EIN here.

Where does my donation go? +−

Community wellness, youth, veteran, and education programs.

How can I help besides giving money? +−

Volunteer, sponsor a program, host a fundraiser, or partner with us as a business or community group. Start on the Donate & Get Involved page.
