Reconnecting 1000 veterans

A project to unite organisations behind a common mission: to unite, support and sponsor research to study the outcomes of providing legal psilocybin truffle sessions that include coaching and integration.

1000 Vets

We are a collaboration of psychedelic & veteran and other organisations, committed to proving scientific research into an observational study for psychedelic psilocybin truffle experiences.

We feel the urgent need to address the PTSD and suicide crisis. We need to act like we would a crisis: UNITE

Not to carry on as business as usual, no matter how well intended all our respective initiatives, it is time to unite and lead by example and show the world the impact and potential of psychedelics, through scientific research.

The pilot veteran retreat in The Netherlands in September 2021 with 9 veterans including several active special forces operators including officers. We were measuring Quality of Life & Resilience with the university of Leiden neurologist Luisa Prochazkova, leading the observational study. The protocol was the same as Heroic Hearts that will measure Traumatic Brian Injury. A study hosted by Psychedelic Insights who operates Psychedelic Warriors.

The 4 Project pillars

Sponsorship

We need all of our collective efforts, network, specialisation, competences and skills to share our stories and mission to have 1000 veterans sponsored. What is the problem? Why this is necessary? What is being done. What is our solution? These are all questions that require careful considerations and thought out solutions to support our mission.

P. R.

We need one voice to represent us, to articulate, educate, promote and de-stigmatise our work and our mission. We require a consistent, professional and informed paradigm to further our mission. To build bridges, unite and educate those interested in our work.

Therapy

From first contact after sign-up to the last feedback and peer to peer contact between veterans, we require a legal and scientifically sound therapeutic framework to operate in. Psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, therapists and other professionals play a transparant coordinated therapeutic role as care providers.

Science

From defining our potential (veteran) subject requirements and all metrics along the entire client journey: measurements (software, wearables, laboratory, psychological) and analyses. All are paramount to safety, efficacy and transparency. We are required to show the power of our work to the world (outside clinical research) and help turn the tide.

What to do now?

Use your network to get specialists involved. Medical, veteran sponsorship organisations, psychiatrists, scientific institutes and more…

Share this website to those who can help!

Showing the world we lead by example and provide the science and personal stories to change veterans’ lives and enable a route towards large scale adaptation of psychedelic assisted therapy by initiating a global public dialogue in the press.

We’ll plan a mega PR & press offensive and make sure we’ll get sponsorship to the top of the agenda!

Manifesto
1000 Vets

Our Mission:

To receive sponsorship for the scientific observational research study for 1000 veterans to be served with legal, professional, psychologically guided psychedelic psilocybin truffle sessions with the aim to measure the outcomes in [un-diagnosed] veterans’ mental health issues.

Our motivation:

With more suicides then combat casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan combined, we feel the urgent need to address the global veteran mental health challenges. We feel the need to study magic psilocybine truffles. We as organisations, are stepping forward and committing to act like we would a crisis: WE UNITE.


Our vision:

We believe it is time to work together and show the world the promise and impact of psychedelic assisted therapy and its dramatic positive impact and effects on veterans’ mental health and also for their families. We envision a broad international public dialogue in the press, free of stigma and fueled by science and the practical results and personal (veteran) testimonials. 

Our resources:


We are a collaboration of organisations and professionals, committed to raising funds, promoting our mission and providing the best possible education and care, in a therapeutic, legal and scientific framework for researching psychedelic assisted therapy, with the ambition to affect enduring reductions in mental health symptoms in veterans. We commit to allocating “reasonable time and resources” and  “reasonable reductions” in pricing, fees or similar costs to stretch sponsor funds used for veterans.

How we organise:

A board will be selected by our collective. Collaborating organisations themselves may be active in one of four pillars: 

  1. Fundraising 
  2. PR 
  3. Therapy
  4. Science

Participating organisations will work transparently, make public our methods and findings to share our mission’s work with the world and to further our vision and promote a safe and open dialogue. A project programme staff and supervising board is to be established.
