Overcoming Stigma: Online Learning

CCSA is using online learning to address the stigma surrounding substance use.

We have developed three learning modules on the topic of stigma associated with substance use. These modules have been made with both the general public and professional audiences in mind.

After completing the modules, you will understand that substance use disorder is a treatable, medically diagnosed, health condition, and that by using person-first language you can begin to change the way you think about and treat people with substance use disorder. The goal of the modules is to increase your understanding of stigma and equip you with the tools and knowledge you need to address stigma at home, in the workplace and in your communities.

CCSA is proud to have partnered with the Community Addictions Peer Support Association on modules two and three and are grateful for their contributions to this suite of resources.

For the optimum learning experience, view the modules in order. For a seamless experience, the modules should be viewed using the latest versions of the Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari web browsers.
