Rational. Evidence-Based. Human-Centered.

Psychedelic Access Project (PsyAP, pronounced sci-ap) advocates for the rational and fact-based reevaluation of psychedelics at the communal and state level — recognizing their medicinal properties and their potential to enhance individual well-being.

We’re advancing thoughtful, evidence-driven drug policy that prioritizes health, safety, and equity.

Community-led. Fact driven. Purpose built.

PsyAP is a volunteer-led 501(c)(4) organization working to ensure psychedelic policy and access in Minnesota is informed by science, compassion, and common sense.

The values and principles guiding our work.

  • We believe in safe and equitable access to psychedelics.

  • We aim to improve the well-being of individuals and communities in Minnesota.

  • We are committed to influencing evidence-based drug policy rooted inr esearch, ethics, and social equity.

Access should be informed by evidence, not stigma — and shaped by communities, not corporations.

What we do

PsyAP bridges the gap between science, advocacy, and policy to ensure Minnesota’s approach to psychedelics is grounded in facts and focused on public health and restorative justice.
