Passed in 2022, The Natural Medicine Health Act (NMHA) decriminalized adult possession of natural medicines (including psilocybin, psilocin, mescaline not derived from peyote, ibogaine and DMT), and initiated the process of creating regulated healing centers in Colorado. Vicente LLP founding partner Joshua Kappel served as a drafter and a leading member of the campaign for the NMHA. Our team is actively involved in the development and implementation of the NMHA and other psychedelic laws and policies in the U.S. and abroad.
