Media Toolkit
Research has consistently shown that when people interact with members of a stigmatized group and hear their stories directly, it has a powerful destigmatizing effect, more than simply educating the public about the science underlying a condition1. That's why we are so grateful for the bravery and generosity of the people featured in the videos featured in the Your Story Matters campaign. We know their stories will help those in our community who are suffering with a substance use disorder, and their friends, family, and people who care for them. Please share their stories with your audience. Click on the images below, or view the entire video library.
