APRC is an Aspen-based nonprofit organization that educates community members and thought leaders on the optimal use of psychedelic medicines, emphasizing equity, safety, and spirituality. The organization grew out of Right to Heal Aspen—an initiative consisting of over 30 local participants, including therapists, leaders, doctors, lawyers, parents, and plant medicine enthusiasts, committed to decriminalizing plant medicines in Aspen—and was established in response to community feedback following the passing of Prop 122 (The Natural Medicine Health Act of Colorado).
