Substance use disorder is the MOST STIGMATIZED HEALTH CONDITION IN THE WORLD, with alcohol use disorder not far behind at fourth in the world. The degree of stigma is related to the perceived cause of the condition (if perceived not to be someone’s fault, stigma is lower) and perceived control over the condition (if perceived not to be under someone’s control, stigma is lower). NCADA works to reduce or prevent the harms of alcohol and other drug use through education, intervention and advocacy. NCADA is dedicated to reducing the stigma associated with both substance use disorders and alcohol use disorders. #addictionisadisease #ThePlaceToTurn
