Advocacy Toolkit
Stop the Ban. Protect Access to Safe, Natural Alternatives.
HAVEN Access is a grassroots advocacy organization working to protect lawful access to kratom and emerging natural substances through public education and legislative engagement.
7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) and kratom are facing increasing legislative scrutiny across multiple states. Federal agencies have recommended Schedule I action specific to 7-OH, while broader state-level restrictions on kratom continue to expand. These proposals rely heavily on theoretical risk models, selective interpretation of data, and precautionary assumptions rather than demonstrated real-world patterns of harm sufficient to justify criminalization.
Access decisions with far-reaching consequences are being advanced without proportional evidence and without meaningful consideration of the lived experiences of individuals who rely on lawful access.
HAVEN provides clear, evidence-based resources and organized advocacy tools that enable direct participation in legislative and regulatory processes. We work to ensure that access and regulatory decisions are grounded in transparency, factual analysis, and real-world outcomes rather than speculative or mischaracterized claims.
