SUMMARY:Caring and Consciousness: The Role of Nurses in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October\, 1st\, 2025 12:00 PM PST \n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\n\n\nDo you wish you got into this event for free? Become a Chacruna member and receive free or discounted access to all Community Forums\, Courses\, Workshops\, and more! Also get full access to our entire archive of past forum recordings and join our global network of psychedelic professionals and activists to dive deeper into discussion and discovery. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a conversation on the role of nurses in psychedelic-assisted therapy. As psychedelics find their place in healthcare\, nurses bring a unique perspective\, combining clinical knowledge\, ethics\, and compassionate care. This Community Forum will explore how nursing training and ethics prepare practitioners for this work\, what barriers exist\, and what skills or competencies should be prioritized for nurses entering the field. We’ll dive into questions like: How can nurses treat all drug use as valid and support those who use substances? Who are we not reaching\, and why does that matter? How do systemic inequities shape the leadership and culture of psychedelic organizations\, and how can nurses help increase access to psychedelic therapies? Speakers include Andrew Penn\, psychiatric nurse practitioner and researcher at UCSF; Dr. Ronica Mukerjee\, family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and health justice advocate; Caroline Dorsen\, nurse scholar and program director for the University Psychedelic Education Program; and Dr. Megan Miller\, nurse researcher specializing in palliative care and psilocybin-assisted therapy. Together\, we’ll discuss how nurses can help make psychedelic therapy more accessible\, ethical\, and rooted in care and justice.

SUMMARY:Psychedelic Humanities and Knowledge Making
DESCRIPTION:October 29th\, 2025 1:00 PM CST \nREGISTER HERE \nDo you wish you got into this event for free? Become a Chacruna member and receive free or discounted access to all Community Forums\, Courses\, Workshops\, and more! Also get full access to our entire archive of past forum recordings and join our global network of psychedelic professionals and activists to dive deeper into discussion and discovery. \nChacruna is glad to invite you for a conversation exploring the intersections of humanities education and psychedelic therapy. Just as psychedelic-assisted treatments seek to transform consciousness and support healing\, the study of literature\, art\, and culture has long worked to expand imagination\, build empathy\, and help us grapple with social and political realities. This forum will examine how core methods of the humanities – such as discussion\, critical reflection\, and encounters with art and media – overlap with the aims of contemporary psychedelic practice. We’ll ask: How can a deeper grounding in the humanities help psychedelic practitioners better understand the cultural and political consequences of their work? What might a more self-aware\, ethically attuned humanities education look like\, and how could it support the wellbeing of both students and psychedelic communities? Speakers include Ramzi Fawaz\, cultural critic and professor of English at the University of Wisconsin\, Madison; Arielle Saiber\, professor of Italian Studies at Johns Hopkins University; Darieck Scott\, professor of African American Studies at UC Berkeley; Jacob Perlson\, psychiatrist and psychedelic therapist; and Nico Gusac\, Chacruna’s Development and Outreach Support\, and researcher in medical anthropology. Together\, we’ll reflect on how integrating humanities with psychedelic practice can foster more just\, ethical\, and transformative approaches. \n  \n
