Insights and Approaches to Reduce the Stigma of Substance Use
This interactive session explores the roots, impact, and consequences of stigma surrounding substance use, with a focus on fostering empathy, understanding, and effective approaches to reduce bias.
Participants will gain insights into how stigma affects individuals, families, and communities, and will learn practical strategies to create supportive, nonjudgmental environments in behavioral health, workplace, and community settings. Through real-world examples, reflective exercises, and communication tools, participants will enhance their knowledge and skills sets to challenge stigma and promote recovery-oriented support.
