​Join us for the inaugural Psychedelic Awards, a special gathering honoring extraordinary leadership, service, and stewardship in the psychedelic field.

​Presented by Psychedelic Literacy in partnership with California Institute of Integral Studies, the 2026 ceremony will celebrate the lifetime contributions of Stanislav Grof, whose pioneering work in psychedelic research, transpersonal psychology, and non-ordinary states of consciousness has shaped generations of practitioners, researchers, and seekers.

​The evening will also honor Betsy Gordon for her visionary philanthropic leadership in support of psychedelic research, education, and culture.

​The program will feature tributes and reflections from leading voices in the field, including Rick Doblin, Chris Bache, Janis Phelps, Michael and Annie Mithoefer, Charlie Grob, Bob Jesse, Adele Getty, Judie Wexler, Meihong Xu, Angel Gambino, Diane Haug, Roger Walsh, Sylver Quevedo, Mac Murphy, Stephanie Schmitz, and more.

​This inaugural event marks the beginning of an annual platform dedicated to recognizing those whose work has profoundly advanced psychedelic knowledge, healing, and public understanding.
