Community Support
UNSHAME Kentucky is shaped by our Community Impact Committee, Community Partners, Influencers, and others. For the UNSHAME Kentucky campaign to be successful, Kentuckians impacted by opioid use disorder (OUD) must be represented and actively participating in changing the narrative as they bring their leadership, expertise, and a commitment to treating people in our community with respect and understanding.
Community Impact Committee (CIC)
The purpose of the Community Impact Committee (CIC) is for members of the community to provide ongoing guidance, feedback, and support to elements of the UNSHAME Kentucky campaign. This includes campaign structure and organization, webinar content and outreach, website content and engagement, newsletter content, media elements, relationship building and any public facing collateral to better engage Community Partners and Kentucky communities.
Community Partners
Community Partners are crucial to the success of UNSHAME Kentucky. They are consulted as experts to learn about their community’s needs and interests. They act as a bridge to build sustained relationships with local communities. Community Partners are committed to building upon their understanding of OUD and stigma through campaign promotion, education, and advocacy.
