SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In The Stigma Effect, psychologist Patrick W. Corrigan examines the unintended consequences of mental health campaigns and proposes new policies in their place. He argues that effective strategies require leadership by those with lived experience, as their stories replace ideas of incompetence and dangerousness with ones of hope and empowerment.
