Shatter Stigma in Your Community
In this workshop, the topic of stigma reduction will be examined in a multitude of ways, including Shatterproof’s development of a national strategy to reduce stigma, key success factors in previous social movements, and the results from an innovative, first-of-its-kind anti-stigma campaign being conducted in Pennsylvania. Participants will leave the session with a better understanding of what it takes to run the right campaign, and how other social movements have created immense progress using an evidence-based, public health approach.
