Statewide Psilocybin Efforts

ADAPT-WA

Washington State ranks 3rd in the nation for mental illness among adults (nearly 24% of the population), and a government survey ranked Washington 49th in the nation for psychiatric bed capacity. State payments to five private psychiatric hospitals nearly tripled over five years, totaling almost $67 million in 2018, and the near-term projection (including the construction of additional hospitals) totals $1 billion. With the mental healthcare crisis on the rise and a significant shortage of resources, our state and our nation clearly need more effective treatment options.

Our first step in bringing psilocybin-assisted counseling to Washington is the signature-gathering campaign. Please consider a donation to help us reach the ballot and the voters in November 2022!
