Back to Stakeholders

The Council on Spiritual Practices (CSP) is a US non-profit organisation founded in 1993 by Robert Jesse to support research and education on the safe and effective use of entheogens and primary religious experience. CSP was instrumental in initiating the landmark Johns Hopkins psilocybin research programme with Roland Griffiths, co-funding pivotal early studies on psilocybin's mystical-experience effects that re-established psychedelic science and shaped clinical frameworks globally.
