Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Zendo Project offers professional harm reduction education to communities and organizations, and provides peer support services at events to help transform difficult psychedelic experiences and other complex emotions into opportunities for learning and growth.
-
PROGRAM SERVICE - EDUCATION SERVICES: The Zendo Project provides educational programming to train individuals in psychedelic peer support, crisis intervention techniques, and harm reduction principles.~ Accomplishments: In 2024, Zendo Project delivered 7 trainings to 1,414 attendees, including five sessions of our newly launched Zendo Sitting and Integration (SIT) online course. To ensure access for low-income and marginalized individuals, we awarded 319 full or partial scholarships to approximately 30% of participants in each cohort, prioritizing those with financial need and those identifying as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, or part of other underrepresented communities in alignment with our DEIA values.~ We also began strategic planning for targeted training programs designed for crisis workers and event staff and initiated the process of updating the Zendo Project Manual to reflect the expanded curriculum and insights from the SIT course, with a goal of completion by May 2025.PROGRAM SERVICE - EVENT SERVICES: The Zendo Project provides on-site psychedelic peer support services at festivals and events, creating safe spaces for individuals experiencing challenging non-ordinary states.~ Accomplishments: In 2024, the Zendo Project provided peer support services at the Texas Eclipse Festival (10,000+ patrons) and Burning Man (60,000+ patrons). At Texas Eclipse, 80 trained volunteers provided 24/7 peer support services to 150 attendees over four days. At Burning Man, our team of 480 volunteers provided 24/7 peer support, serving approximately 400 guests in seven days, with a 19-day on-site presence from our leadership team. ~ We further developed our proprietary digital records system to more accurately capture metrics, interventions used and their success rate, areas for service improvement, and data to communicate how Zendo is fulfilling its mission. ~ Additionally, we expanded potential partnerships with event producers and medical service providers.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
