A 3775 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to medical use of psilocybin; appropriation

This bill establishes a legal framework for the medical use of psilocybin (a psychedelic compound found in certain mushrooms) in New York. It creates a grant program to fund psilocybin-assisted therapy for veterans, first responders, retired first responders, and low-income individuals, administered through the state health department. The law defines key terms, requires certification for healthcare providers offering therapy, and protects patients and practitioners from legal penalties for compliant medical use under state law. It also mandates biennial reports on the program's implementation and establishes regulations for safe clinical administration.
