ABOUT K.W.H.O.L.E.

  • Who We Are

    K.W.H.O.L.E. is a volunteer-run community initiative founded and directed by Regina H., supported by a small leadership board and trusted facilitators.

    Our leadership team brings lived experience, professional backgrounds, and a shared commitment to ethical, compassionate community care. Facilitators and board members serve in clearly defined roles to support transparency, accountability, and shared responsibility.

    No single person holds unilateral control over K.W.H.O.L.E.’s platforms or resources.

    Our community is made up of anyone with a desire to stop using Ketamine, and those who have used in the past and wish to share their experience, strength, and hope with those still suffering.

  • What We Do

    K.W.H.O.L.E. creates facilitated community spaces focused on connection, recovery, and honest conversations around substance use, with particular attention to the often-overlooked risks of ketamine addiction.

    We offer free, peer-supported Zoom meetings, community dialogue, and educational engagement designed to reduce isolation and support people navigating addiction and recovery.

    K.W.H.O.L.E. is not a treatment program or clinical service. We are a community space grounded in care, lived experience, and mutual support.

  • When We Meet

    K.W.H.O.L.E. meetings are held on a regular schedule and facilitated by trained volunteers who adhere to our principles and code of ethics.

    Meeting times, facilitators, and upcoming sessions are shared on our website and community channels. Participation is open - members are welcome to attend as they are able, without obligation or cost.

  • Where We Gather

    All current K.W.H.O.L.E. meetings take place online via Zoom, making participation accessible regardless of location.

  • Why K.W.H.O.L.E. Exists

    Ketamine is often framed as non-addictive or purely therapeutic, which can leave people struggling with dependency feeling isolated, confused, or unseen.

    K.W.H.O.L.E. exists to challenge that silence.

    By creating space for honest conversation, shared experience, and community support, we aim to raise awareness about the nuanced pathways from use to dependency - especially in contexts where ketamine use is normalized or misunderstood.

    We believe healing happens in community, and that people deserve spaces where their experiences are acknowledged with dignity, honesty, and care.

  • How Decisions Are Made

    K.W.H.O.L.E. is guided by a collaborative leadership model. Major decisions around organizational structure, finances, platform access, and public representation are made collectively with the support of the board.

    This shared approach ensures transparency, accountability, and prevents unilateral control, while keeping community trust at the center of everything we do.
