Review for Multidisciplinary Association For Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), San Jose, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Having been a donor and member of MAPS for a number of years, reading their bulletins and attending the latest MAPS conference, I can attest to the remarkable work that Rick and his hardworking team have accomplished. These amazing and powerful plants and drugs have been vilified by the media, being lumped together with dangerous and addictive substances to further the cause of the "War on Drugs". Now thanks to the MAPS team, there are a number of clinical trials in progress throughout the US and other countries researching the safety and efficacy of psychedelics, entheogens and cannabis. I currently support them financially and would like to donate my time in the future.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

obtaining valuable information distributed through the MAPS journal and their April conference: "Psychedelic Science in the 21st Century".

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

passionate and dedicated to the work they are doing, and highly competent.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Get MDMA approved as a prescription medicine for PTSD and end-of-life therapy.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every six months

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2010

Role:  Donor & I am a donor and supporter of MAPS.
