Organizational Assessment Tool for Substance Use and Stigma

Reducing stigma and discrimination requires a multifaceted approach. Stigma and discrimination arise from the attitudes, values, beliefs and practices of individuals in addition to the policies, procedures, culture and environment of service organizations.

The assessment tool will help organizations to:

• identify their strengths and challenges related to stigma and discrimination;
• increase awareness of organizational issues (e.g., policies, procedures, culture and environment) that promote stigma and discrimination against people accessing substance use health care; and
• develop strategies to decrease stigma and discrimination and promote safer and more supportive environments.
