Overcoming Stigma Associated with Alcohol Use
Individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) often face stigma in accessing care and treatment. We will review the interplay between stigma and health outcomes among those with AUD. We also will differentiate how stigma from alcohol use may differ from stigma associated with other use disorders. Emphasis will be placed on utilizing person-first language as a tool to help mitigate stigma among those with AUD.
