Her legacy
Carrying Sheri's work forward
The Sheri Eckert Foundation was established in 2021 to honor Sheri's legacy, and to continue the work she began in helping create the United States' first publicly available, state-regulated psilocybin healthcare model. The foundation supports equitable access to psilocybin services so that more people can experience the care Sheri believed in.
"If you take the time to explore yourself, to listen to your spirit, to walk among the many less frequented paths within your mind, I am sure you will be amazed at the mesmerizing beauty you will find."Sheri Eckert
