This is the sixth and final installment in my write-up of the proposed Oregon psilocybin program rules.

Welcome to the penultimate installment in my write-up of the proposed Oregon psilocybin program rules. This post focuses on facilitators and related client matters.

This post and the next few will cover some of the high points. In general, OHA did a good job implementing the Oregon Psilocybin Advisory Board’s (“Board”) recommendations
On September 6, 2022, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors unanimously voted to pass a resolution aimed at decriminalizing psychedelics. This is yet another victory in the battle against prohibition.

This is because we expect the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to publish all remaining proposed administrative rules for the Oregon psilocybin program. The forthcoming rules should cover everything outlined in Measure 109
