A government task force in Nevada has approved a report recommending that lawmakers create a program for regulated access to psychedelic-assisted therapy and consider reducing legal penalties for entheogenic plants and fungi.
The report from Nevada’s Psychedelic Medicines Working Group notes that research increasingly indicates that treatment with substances such as psilocybin, 5-MeO-DMT, mescaline and ibogaine may improve mental health and substance use disorders, and that other states and localities are already taking steps to research or implement their own therapeutic psychedelics programs.
“These initiatives and programs demonstrate a nationwide commitment to increasing access to psychedelic-assisted therapy for mental health treatment,” the document says, “and revising policies based on clinical research, therapeutic potential, and safety profiles.”
