About the event
Questions abound about the resurgence of psychedelic substances, such as psilocybin mushrooms or MDMA-assisted therapy, and the desire, necessity, safety, and risks of opening access to them. What does it mean for public safety for people in Colorado to have access to psychedelic mushrooms? What values are we supporting if we let people use these substances? With all the hype around psychedelics, have we forgotten the risks, concerns, and questions that many people still have around them? In this open public forum, let's have a real conversation about what the growing use of psychedelics means for all of us and our communities.
