Social Justice and Psychedelics - Our Perspective and Position

At VAPS, we deeply recognize the significance of psychedelic medicines, not only as therapeutic tools but also as catalysts for the broader betterment of society and holistic healing of individuals.

Our mission emphasizes inclusivity. We ask ourselves who might be absent from our discussions and initiative. An essential part of our mission is to continuously identify and actively work to remove barriers that may be preventing participation in our community.

We believe that to effectively serve the community and promote understanding, our practices should incorporate a variety of perspectives from the psychedelic sphere.

We recognize the nuances of privilege, acknowledging that experiences with, and access to, psychedelic medicines are not universal and drastically vary based on multiple socio-cultural and economic factors.

VAPS invites every voice that recognizes the transformative potential of psychedelic medicines to join our dialogue and shape our collective direction.

As such, your direct feedback in this ever changing ethical and legal landscape is invaluable to us.

We encourage our community to share with us their personal experiences, insights, and suggestions.
