Zendo Project

The Zendo Project is MAPS's psychedelic harm reduction program, providing trained facilitators at festivals and events to support people having difficult psychedelic experiences. The program has trained hundreds of volunteers in psychedelic harm reduction and crisis support, and its model — compassionate presence, non-judgmental support, trust building — has become the gold standard for festival harm reduction. Zendo also trains facilitators for integration circles and conducts workshops on harm reduction for the broader public.
