Safety-Centered and Regulated
This bill seeks to create regulated access to natural psilocybin in a therapeutic setting for adults dealing with mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, and overall mental well-being. It prioritizes safety by permitting adults aged 21 and older to use these research-backed treatments under the supervision of licensed facilitators. These services will be provided at licensed healing centers and approved healthcare facilities.
Supported by Research
