Community guidelines
Our commitment
The Santa Fe Psychedelic Society is committed to fostering safe, ethical, and compassionate spaces for education, reflection, and connection.
We do not facilitate, promote, or encourage the use or procurement of illegal substances at any of our meetings or through any of our communications. This is not a space for soliciting ceremonies, sourcing substances, or arranging underground retreats. We ask that all participants respect this boundary. Your presence in this community affirms your agreement to not engage in such activities through our gatherings.
Our events are designed to offer education, peer dialogue, and harm reduction support. Any stories or content shared during our gatherings are for reflective and educational purposes only, and are not intended as substitutes for medical, psychiatric, or therapeutic advice.
We hold this space with the intention of nurturing spiritual, psychological, and communal well-being through responsible conversation, inquiry, and integration. By participating, you agree to uphold the integrity of the space and help us protect its purpose, safety, and accessibility for all who enter.
Code of conduct
How we show up for each other
Respect and dignity
Every person in this community deserves to be treated with respect. This includes people of all backgrounds, experience levels, beliefs, and perspectives. Discrimination, harassment, and belittling language have no place here.
Confidentiality
What is shared in our gatherings stays within our gatherings. We ask all participants to hold the stories, struggles, and disclosures of others with discretion and care.
No facilitation or procurement
Our community space is not a venue for facilitating, arranging, or discussing the procurement of illegal substances. Please do not use our gatherings or communications channels for this purpose.
No medical or therapeutic claims
We are a peer community, not a clinical service. Please do not offer medical advice, make therapeutic claims, or present yourself as a provider in our community spaces unless you are doing so in a clearly delineated, disclosed context.
Consent and boundaries
Respect the physical and emotional boundaries of others. Ask before sharing personal content. Make space for people to participate at their own comfort level.
Honesty and epistemic humility
This is a landscape where much is still unknown. We ask that you represent your certainty honestly, acknowledge limitations in your knowledge, and remain open to complexity.
Accountability
If you cause harm, take responsibility. If you see harm occurring, speak up through appropriate channels. We are all responsible for maintaining the integrity of this space.
Enforcement
How we handle violations
Violations of these guidelines may result in removal from a gathering, temporary suspension from community events, or permanent removal from the community, depending on the severity and pattern of behavior.
If you experience or witness a violation, you can contact our leadership team directly at info@santafepsychedelicsociety.com. We take all reports seriously and will maintain appropriate confidentiality throughout any process.
