About this Event
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is one of the most stigmatized health conditions in the world. Research indicates that stigma is persistent, pervasive, and rooted in the belief that addiction is a personal choice reflecting a lack of willpower and a moral failing. Stigma contributes to barriers in accessing treatment. People may fear being labeled or judged if they seek help, leading to delays in getting the care they need. Healthcare providers' attitudes and behaviors toward substance use disorder (SUD) can significantly impact patient outcomes and the overall approach to addressing addiction within healthcare systems.
During this webinar and interactive discussion, learn more about concrete strategies on how to break down internal biases that we hold. Additionally, we will hear from two Shatterproof Ambassadors who will share their personal stories on their journey to recovery and how stigma deeply impacted their lives and success.
