Program Coordinator

JOB TITLE: Program Coordinator, National Stigma Initiative DEPARTMENT: National Stigma Initiative LOCATION: Remote (Candidates must reside in California) REPORTING TO: Program Manager, National Stigma Initiative JOB TYPE: Full Time SALARY: Starting at $66,560 ABOUT SHATTERPROOF: Shatterproof was founded in 2013 to fill the gap for a well-funded, national, coordinated effort to reverse the course of the addiction health crisis, with the singular goal of ending the devastation addiction is causing our families. To achieve this, Shatterproof has identified three priority pillars: revolutionizing the treatment system, breaking down addiction-related stigma, and supporting and empowering our communities. Recognizing the gap in stigma reduction efforts across the nation, Shatterproof has quickly become a leader in the space. In 2020, Shatterproof launched a national movement to End Addiction Stigma to address this gap and catalyze efforts to reduce addiction-related stigmas. Based on extensive interviews, literature reviews, and case studies, we believe that effectively addressing stigma is a critical, cutting-edge component of combatting this crisis–and every individual and institution in the U.S. has an important role to play. Accordingly, Shatterproof has identified six systems that will have the largest impact on those with substance use disorder (SUD): employers, healthcare, government, criminal justice, media & entertainment, and local communities. Currently, Shatterproof leads statewide stigma reduction campaigns in California, Georgia, and Kentucky, plays an integral role in Pennsylvania’s statewide addiction stigma reduction behavior change campaign and healthcare pilot, and provides technical assistance to various jurisdictions and organizations.
