About us
Portland Psychedelic Society (PPS) is a community-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to creating inclusive spaces for psychedelic education, integration, advocacy, and meaningful community connection.
Through our recurring PPS Community Nights at The Haven, special events, and broader community ecosystem, we aim to cultivate thoughtful, grounded, and accessible opportunities for learning, reflection, relationship-building, and personal growth. We believe community itself is an essential part of healing, belonging, and cultural transformation.

Our Recurring Anchor Programs
PPS Community Nights at The Haven are our recurring monthly programs designed to create a consistent rhythm of community gathering and engagement. They include:
- Education Program
- Community Salon

We welcome those with no psychedelic experience, those with decades of experience, and everyone in between.

Important Registration Information
PPS primarily uses Meetup for community visibility, outreach, and event discovery.
Official PPS Community Nights and other PPS-produced events require registration through our Neon event platform. RSVP’ing on Meetup alone does not reserve a space for ticketed PPS events.
When applicable, please use the registration link provided within each event description to complete your registration and reserve your spot.
Most PPS events operate on a sliding-scale or donation-based model in an effort to keep programming accessible while sustaining the ongoing work of the organization.
***
Affiliate & Community Events
In addition to official PPS programming, this Meetup page may also feature affiliated community events hosted by aligned facilitators, organizers, and partner organizations throughout the region.
These affiliate events are independently organized and operated. Registration processes, pricing, facilitation styles, and event policies may vary by organizer. PPS helps spotlight these offerings as part of a broader ecosystem of psychedelic community care and connection, but PPS is not responsible for the direct oversight, facilitation, or management of affiliate events.

Final Men's Support Group — Come Celebrate
Taborspace, 5441 SE Belmont St, Portland, OR, USAfter nearly 7 years, I'm stepping away from hosting the PPS Men's Support Group.
The wisdom, character, and presence of the men who have attended over the years have made this group a tremendously meaningful experience for me, and hopefully for you as well.
We're going to gather one final time to break bread, reminisce, and orient toward the future, and most importantly hang out and just be.
If you haven't attended in some time, I'd love to see you at this final group. If this would be your first time, please attend regardless. It would be great to fill the room.
I'll provide some snacks, beverages, and plates. If you would like to contribute some food or non-alcoholic beverage, please do.
Looking forward to seeing in the group one final time. Here's to the continued journey.
