August 2022 Life Lines: Stigma and Addiction

Homewood HealthTM EFAP is pleased to release the Life Lines article for August 2022, “Stigma and Addiction”.
In this article, we will delve into the language surrounding addiction and examine how the use of stigmatizing and stereotypical terms contributes to the issue. We will also discuss strategies for reducing stigma and provide resources for individuals with addiction and their loved ones to support recovery efforts. By reframing our understanding of these terms, we aim to address the issue of addiction in a more compassionate and informed manner.
Homewood Health is pleased to provide both video (below) and audio (sidebar) of the article summary.
