What I noticed

Public discussion regularly collapses four different legal conditions—legal, decriminalized, regulated, and approved—into a single idea. In psychedelics, that confusion compounds across federal law, state programs, local reforms, professional licensure, religious-use claims, clinical research, and business operations, making it difficult for a reader to identify both the governing question and the kind of lawyer they may need.

What I researched

The library organizes 143 plain-English articles around foundational distinctions and seven reader pathways: participants, people responding to harm, facilitators, clinicians, operators, researchers or investors, and people exploring religious use. Coverage includes Oregon and Colorado programs, federal-state conflict, licensing and scope, service-center operations, trials and biotechnology, RFRA questions, disputes, and lawyer-selection guidance, with article-specific review dates.

What exists

A structured library of 143 plain-English articles covering Oregon and Colorado programs, facilitators, clinicians, businesses, research, and remedies.

Who it serves

Practitioners, operators, researchers, students, policymakers, and the public.

What it demonstrates

Legal knowledge architecture, plain-language communication, issue taxonomy, and scalable public education.

Current evidence

The live artifact verifies a searchable 143-article index, seven audience routes, article pages, review-date conventions, and a prominent legal-information boundary. This portfolio audit does not independently cite-check all articles, confirm that every page remains current, or establish an attorney-client relationship. Psychedelics law changes quickly and varies by jurisdiction and facts; users must confirm time-sensitive propositions against current statutes, regulations, agency materials, cases, and licensed counsel.

Verified build record

What is actually running, and what it is not.

LiveLive · 143 articles

The problem. Oregon and Colorado wrote genuinely novel statutes and rules, and the people most affected by them — facilitators, applicants, small operators — are reading them without counsel and without a plain-English intermediate layer that still points at the actual authority.

What it does. Publishes 143 plain-English articles on Oregon and Colorado law, facilitator requirements, and psychedelic business questions, each carrying its sources, with a separate sources index across the whole library and a per-article manifest.

Built on. An Astro-built static site with prebuilt output committed to the repository, served from Vercel.

What it does not establish. Plain-English explanation of published law. Not legal advice, and not a substitute for the statute or rule it describes.

This record is generated from the same inventory as the complete build index: the production URL was checked at the last regeneration, and the status line above repeats what the build reports about itself rather than restating an intention.
