Tactical Guidance for Worldwide Safety in Psychedelics
This company is dedicated to reducing the potential harms of psychedelic use by developing knowledge, systems, and solutions on a large scale. They work collaboratively to gather and communicate the world's best information on harm reduction, involving various stakeholders in the process to ensure the assimilation and implementation of this knowledge. With input from the ecosystem, they design, build, and enhance solutions aimed at minimizing the risks associated with the use of psychedelics. Their work extends to various sectors including public systems, research, media, care providers, and businesses. They support governmental, public health, and public safety systems in developing evidence-based, compassionate psychedelic strategies at all levels. They fund and promote research on how to prevent, treat, or mitigate psychedelic harms, ensuring this valuable information reaches those who need it most. Furthermore, they assist journalists and content creators in portraying psychedelics responsibly and accurately to support public health. In addition to these sectors, the company also assists care providers and training centers in offering safe, effective, and compassionate care to people before, during, and after their psychedelic experiences. They also provide insights into research and market trends, identify key risks, and advise on investment strategies and business practices to ensure the psychedelic industry grows safely and sustainably. Their mission to reduce harm is driven by the recent rise in psychedelic usage due to the potential benefits for mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, addiction, and PTSD. Recognizing the concurrent increase in psychedelic harms, they are building systems to anticipate, mitigate, and respond to these risks. Their research shows that psychedelics can be effective for mental health, but warns that use outside clinical settings can lead to serious harm, including the onset of mental illnesses like psychosis. Therefore, their work is crucial in ensuring the safe use of these substances.
