Stigma Reduction Project Team

Our Strategies

Develop educational campaign/materials focused on normalizing and increasing awareness for a targeted population around behavioral health issues.
Audit marketing and messaging of current behavioral health services and resources to determine how to share information more effectively.
Target stigma reduction materials at community gathering places, including schools, local markets, clinics, libraries, etc.
Develop and fund training on behavioral health/rapid crisis response such as QPR and gatekeeper training for community-based organizations and community members (moved from Strategy 1)

The Idaho Department of Juvenile Corrections (IDJC) also compiles relevant behavioral health trainings from around the state. Training opportunities are listed below.
