A Voice for Mental Health

The Future Of Healing in Texas

As Goes Texas, So Goes The Nation

Those words have never been truer than today when Texas serves as a critical policy leader and legislative model for other states and the federal government.

Following the passage of HB 1802 in 2021's 87th Legislative Session, Texas established itself as a key leader in shaping the future of psychedelic therapies in the United States. By prioritizing research and efficacy over politics and profit, Texas created a model for advancing our understanding of these powerful medicines and a roadmap to responsible access for critical populations like the Veteran community. More than a dozen states have followed Texas' lead, and now even the federal government is funding and supporting psychedelic research for the treatment of Veterans and active duty service members.

Building on Texas' leadership in supporting psychedelic therapies, Texans for Greater Mental Health is a grassroots organization dedicated to expanding awareness and understanding of psychedelic therapies and building support for their continued research and access.

GET INVOLVED TODAY

"I think one of the greatest travesties of our time is the fact that these beautiful medicines are inaccessible to 99% of Americans."

THE RESEARCH

Psychedelic Therapies and Depression

"Psilocybin not only produces significant and immediate effects, it also has a long duration, which suggests that it may be a uniquely useful new treatment for depression,”

Roland Griffiths, Ph.D.

Psychedelic Therapies
and Alcoholism

"A small study on the therapeutic effects of using psychedelics to treat alcohol use disorder found that just two doses of psilocybin magic mushrooms paired with psychotherapy led to an 83 percent decline in heavy drinking among the participants. Those given a placebo reduced their alcohol intake by 51 percent."

Psychedelic Therapies
and Opioid Abuse

"Science has reached a first tipping point where there’s now enough evidence [that] it’s really hard not to take the potential of psychedelics seriously.”

-Michael Bogenschutz, professor of psychiatry at New York University Grossman School of Medicine
