  • Direct community support via our Psychedelic Info Line, which offers 100% free, zero-stigma access to evidence-based psychedelic education for all people.
  • Ongoing advocacy and public education, through blogs, resources, and outreach centered on queer psychedelic experiences.

Unlimited Sciences’ Response to Stan Grof’s Writings on Queerness

Unlimited Sciences affirms the dignity, value, and validity of all queer identities and categorically rejects any pathologizing LGBTQIA2S+ people.

How We Support the
Queer Community

Unlimited Sciences’ mission, resources, and staff are uniquely positioned to help the LGBTQIA2S+ community learnheal, and expand with the help of psychedelics.

The LGBTQIA2S+ community has long been under-represented in psychedelic research. By studying the effects of psychedelics on queer people, we enhance our understanding of how psychedelics affect everyone differently.

Our Psychedelic Info Line offers direct, judgment-free access to information on psychedelics, grounded in science, like our own research on queer experiences with these substances.

Many of our staff identify as LGBTQIA2S+ and bring both personal experience and professional expertise to our mission of ensuring that psychedelic science serves all people.

Are you looking for
1:1 Guidance?

We often receive calls on our Psychedelic Info Line from LGBTQIA2S+ individuals looking for support before and after psychedelic experiences.

 

Our team works with an awareness of intersectionality, trauma, and minority stress, providing an inclusive approach to your psychedelic journey.
