Oregon Psilocybin Society
Oregon Psilocybin Society is a 501(c)3 Organization founded in 2016 with the direct intention of creating awareness around - and - laying a foundation for the legislation of psilocybin services" -- a sequence of supervised sessions which includes the use of psychedelic psilocybin mushrooms -- available to adults in the U.S. state of Oregon. The founders of the society, Sheri Eckert and Tom Eckert, are the Architects and Chief Petitioners of Measure 109, Introducing an initiative to Oregon state voters for 2020. This legislation will create legal access to psilocybin assisted services to any individual over 21 years of age, upon  passing a risk assessment for contraindications. Psilocybin assisted services will be provided on-site at a licensed facility by a licensed facilitator. The service progression would include, at minimum, a preparation session, a psilocybin administration session, and an integration session. All sessions would be conducted by trained facilitators. The "Psilocybin Service Initiative" was originally submitted to Oregon's Office of Legislative Counsel in January 2017. It was revised in 2019 and approved by Oregon's Secretary of State. In June 2020, the initiative, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, gathered enough signatures to qualify for Oregon's November 2020 election. Oregon Psilocybin
