About Unshame California

The Unshame California campaign is working to reduce stigma around substance use disorder in California. When people with substance use disorders feel welcomed and accepted, they are more likely to maintain connections and seek support and treatment.

Coalition members are vital to Unshame California's success. They serve as experts, providing insight into their community's needs, and help build relationships with local communities. Committed to deepening their understanding of substance use and stigma, they promote the campaign through education, advocacy, and by amplifying its message on social media. Coalition members also connect the Unshame California team with potential members, share stories, and participate in webinars. Their involvement helps shape how the campaign engages with the community, fostering a judgment-free environment where people feel safe to seek help, use life-saving medications, and connect with trusted individuals.
