Decriminalize Nature

Decriminalize Nature is a U.S.-based grassroots network that works through national support and local chapters in cities, states, and some international locations listed on its site, including chapters in places such as California, Michigan, Minnesota, France, and Canada. Its core activities include community organizing, public education, local campaign building, and encouraging local governments to change policy around entheogenic plants and fungi. The organization says its local chapters are the primary vehicle for change and that chapters build awareness, educate the public, and propose legislation.

In psychedelic policy, Decriminalize Nature focuses on decriminalization and expanded access for entheogenic plants and fungi, with a stated emphasis on direct political action and local change rather than expensive ballot-driven approaches. Its site describes a five-point plan aimed at incorporating reverence, social equity, and community-serving markets into policy discussions, and its organizer materials support local campaigns and legislation efforts. Potential collaboration areas include local policy work, public education, research-informed advocacy, and coalition building with clinicians, funders, patient communities, and reform groups that want to support access-focused civic campaigns.
