Addressing Stigma in Rural Communities Through Art and Workshops [#34]

Today, we’re talking about Stigma in rural communities with the Recovery Center of Excellence. We’ll discuss everything there is to know about Stigma in rural communities specifically related to opioid use disorder. The campaign applies the practices of education and contact through art and workshops in rural Appalachian communities. It uses art to dismantle stigma and to humanize those affected by the opioid crisis.

The Recovery Center of Excellence was established by HRSA’s Rural Communities Opioid Response Program to address morbidity, mortality, and other harmful effects of substance use disorder (SUD), especially relating to synthetic opioids. They’re adapting best practices to address needs in rural communities and disseminating resources widely. They’re also implementing programs to expand treatment and recovery resources in rural Appalachian New York.
