July 2006 - The SAMHSA Resource Center to
Address Discrimination and Stigma Associated with Mental Illness
(ADS Center) hosts approximately six free training teleconferences
annually. These events generally consist of two or more formal
presentations followed by an open forum. Participants present
and discuss the most up-to-date research and information about
stigma and stigma-reduction programs and topics, as well as
share experiences and expertise on efforts to counteract discrimination
and stigma associated with mental illness.
Since scheduling conflicts often prevent
many stakeholders from joining in the live events, the teleconference
trainings are archived online for individuals or groups to
utilize at their convenience. To download complete presentations
and listen to the audio recordings, visit the ADS Center Web
site at http://www.stopstigma.samhsa.gov/archtel.htm.
Instructions for play and download are included here also.
We welcome your questions, comments, and
suggestions: stopstigma@samhsa.hhs.gov.
The SAMHSA ADS Center is a program of the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration, Center for Mental Health Services.
