Holos Foundation

The Holos Foundation is a 501c(3) non-profit dedicated to integrating psychedelic medicines into the heartland region of the country as they become legally available.

 

Our Vision

We envision a community where psychedelic healing modalities are legally available, people have access to skillfully trained therapists and these treatments are financially accessible to all those who could benefit.

Our Mission

Our mission is to raise awareness abut the benefits of psychedelic medicines and to train psychotherapists to be ready to provide psychedelic-assisted therapy in Northwest AR and the Heartland region when it becomes legally available.

 

We aim to offset the cost of these treatments to support accessibility of care

 

Friends and Collaborators

  • The Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) provided fiscal sponsorship for the Holos foundation as we worked towards formalizing our 501c(3).

    MAPS is a 501©3 research and education organization that develops medical, legal, and cultural contexts for people to benefit from the careful uses of psychedelics and marijuana.

    To find out more, visit MAPS.org.

  • The Holos foundation provides fiscal sponsorship for Psychedelic Today’s VITAL training scholarship fund. All donations to the Holos Foundation on behalf of VITAL’s scholarship fund will be tax deductible through Holos’ 501(c)(3) tax status. This fiscal sponsorship agreement expands the reach of Holos’ mission to train therapists to be ready to do this work and helps support therapist’s access to quality training

  • The Holos foundation is an original signatory of the North Star Ethics pledge, which pledge of commitment to a set of principles for individuals working professionally in the field of psychedelics.

    Angie collaborated with Northstar as part of their “guiding light pilot” of community advisors and was an original signatory of the pledge.
