The Casey Skudin 343 Fund

What The Casey Skudin 343 Fund does

The Casey Skudin 343 Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 92-0485435) founded in 2022 by Angela Skudin after the death of her husband Casey Skudin, a 16-year FDNY firefighter. The organization provides grants that enable career first responders — firefighters, police officers, paramedics, EMTs, and military veterans — and their families to access psychedelic-assisted treatments (ibogaine, ketamine-assisted therapy, ayahuasca) delivered through a curated network of five partner clinics in jurisdictions where these treatments are legal but unregulated. Its stated mission is to expand structured psychedelic-assisted healing for first responders while prioritizing preparation, integration, and longitudinal accountability. The Fund does not cover the cost of the psychedelic retreats themselves; it focuses on US-based preparation and integration, and coordinates referral to international treatment partners.

The core offering is a three-stage protocol: pre-journey preparation (two coaching sessions, two private breathwork sessions, group integration calls), access to a partner treatment program, and a 12-month post-treatment integration program. The integration program is delivered two ways: a self-pay tier at $2,000 for 12 individual coaching and breathwork sessions plus unlimited weekly community calls, and a needs-based grant pathway reviewed by an internal Approval Committee. A team of nine credentialed coaches — including a retired SEAL Master Chief, a retired NYPD SWAT detective (TBI survivor), a former Air Force/intake pilot, and licensed clinicians — runs the integration work, alongside a 12-member board that mixes military veterans, a naturopathic doctor, and operating executives from PE and consumer brands.

Revenue is generated exclusively through donations and grants: one-time and recurring individual gifts, corporate sponsorships, and event proceeds (an annual volleyball tournament). The Fund markets through its website, Facebook, Instagram, email, podcast appearances, and community events. It is headquartered at a PO Box in Long Beach, New York, with global treatment reach via partner clinics in countries where psychedelic therapies are legal.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS): Long-established nonprofit advancing psychedelic research, education, and clinical access (notably MDMA-assisted therapy). Operates at a much larger scale and broader scope but is a key ecosystem actor shaping the legitimacy and clinical infrastructure the Fund depends on.
• Americans for Ibogaine: Policy and advocacy organization promoting ibogaine access and research, named as an active GTM/marketing partner of the 343 Fund. Broader in scope (federal/state policy reform) but directly tied to ibogaine therapy legitimacy that underpins the Fund's offering.

Direct peers

• Sage Healers: Nonprofit supporting first responder mental health through peer-support networks and alternative-healing resources. Comparable beneficiary population and holistic-care philosophy, with overlapping community-call and peer-mentorship formats.
• Code Green Campaign: Nonprofit raising awareness of the mental health crisis among first responders and providing peer-support resources, education, and crisis referrals. Comparable target population (first responders), though focused on awareness/peer support rather than psychedelic access.
• Blue H.E.L.P. Nonprofit addressing law enforcement suicide through awareness, peer support, and family services. Comparable first-responder mental health mission and small nonprofit operating structure, though without the psychedelic-treatment modality.
• Heroic Hearts Project: Veteran-focused nonprofit that facilitates access to ayahuasca and other psychedelic-assisted therapy programs internationally, with an integration coaching model closely paralleling the 343 Fund's approach. It is the closest direct peer in the veteran/first responder psychedelic-access niche.
• Reason for Hope: Nonprofit that funds and facilitates psychedelic-assisted treatment for first responders and veterans dealing with PTSD, TBI, and substance abuse. Direct peer in both target population and treatment modality mix.
• Veterans Exploring Treatment Solutions (VETS): Nonprofit providing financial support and logistical coordination for U.S. veterans seeking psychedelic-assisted therapies (primarily ibogaine and psilocybin) at partner clinics abroad. Highly comparable mission, beneficiary population, and grant-plus-integration operating model.
