The Psychedelic Access Fund (PAF) is a nonprofit that breaks down the financial, psychological, and societal barriers that prevent individuals from experiencing psychedelic healing. We believe that psychedelic healing should be accessible to all, regardless of a person’s ability to pay for it. Psychedelics are showing to be a promising treatment for our nation’s mental health crisis. However, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies anticipates that MDMA-assisted therapy programs will cost between $13,000 -$15,000 per patient, and we are yet to understand the cost for psilocybin assisted therapy. With depression and anxiety being three times more likely in lower socioeconomic classes, our nation will be left in an imbalance, where only those who can afford to pay for psychedelic healing will have access. We want to solve that problem. Our goal is to break down the barriers of access by identifying individuals who would benefit from psychedelic healing but can not afford it. PAF will sponsor select individuals for healing opportunities in hopes to create a healed, conscious, and connected world. We will also partner with psychedelic facilities and retreat centers across the nation to establish “Pay it Forward” funds and sponsorship programs, so that no person is turned away from psychedelic healing, due to their ability to pay.
