Our Mission

At VAHA, our mission is to increase access to psychedelic-assisted therapies, empower patients to regain control over their health, and Reform barriers restricting access to breakthrough therapies.

Our Why

In the last 20 years, we have lost just over 7,000 service members to combat operations. In that same period of time, we have lost over 240,000 to suicide and drug overdose.

The long-term pharmaceutical-based treatments for physical and mental health conditions continue to have severe negative impacts and are largely responsible for the decline in overall health, increased substance abuse, and an ever-increasing suicide rate among our communities. It is time for change.
