Supporting Psychedelic Healing for Veterans & First Responders
Join us November 2nd, 2025, [Sunday] for the 2nd Shatter the Stigma 5K Run/Walk as we recognize the promising potential of psychedelics for mental health treatment and beyond. Especially for Veterans & First Responders struggling with hard to treat mental health. Recently, the U.S. Department of Defense committed $9.8 million to research this exact cause, and were here to keep that momentum going. Furthermore, According to recent RAND report 8 million Americans took psychedelics in the past year. This is 2.5 million more users than 2019 estimates of 5.5 million users. As new research comes out and public perception shifts, more and more people will use psychedelics. We will run/walk to raise awareness and reduce harm and stigma reduction through education and resources in this quickly growing area of treatment.
On the morning of Sunday, November 2nd runners and walkers of all abilities, advocates, and affected individuals will come together on the beautiful grass area at November 2nd. Money raised will support two non-profits: Reason For Hope and the K Task Force. They are focused on bringing affordable alternative treatments to veterans and first-responders so we can live, grow, and be healthy together.
This will be our second event we hope to serve the people that need it most and create an environment in which continued research can be done. This class of substance (psychedelics) are often stigmatized, understood as negative, we hope to to bring to light the potential positives and facilitate responsible discussion. Funds raised through 5K registrations and fundraising efforts of teams and individuals will support operations of Reason For Hope [https://www.reasonforhope.org/] and the K Task Force.
