Working together to Reduce Stigma

Through this interactive workshop participants will learn more about stigma, its impact on healthcare delivery, patients, and the community.

To accomplish this, the workshop will include methods that will enable the participants to explore their beliefs regarding stigma, and develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and intellectual strategies that are essential to addressing stigma in their communities.

This interactive workshop will also include practical suggestions and realistic problem-solving. It will incorporate art and personal experiences to humanize people with OUD. The activities will enable participants to analyze their beliefs, identify areas for change, and develop specific action plans for modifying current behaviors.

Participants will:

  1. Develop a common definition of stigma and recognize its impact on individuals, families, providers, and their rural community.
  2. Differentiate and explore negative and positive beliefs around OUD and recovery.
  3. Identify ways to overcome barriers and challenges to addressing stigma and to operationalize a recovery-oriented approach to reducing stigma.
