Agendas: Public Workshops

Workshop #1
Lessons Learned from Diverse Efforts to Change Social Norms
March 18, 2015

This workshop is an activity of the Committee on the Science of Changing Behavioral Health Social Norms to assist the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in its efforts to implement strategies that improve attitudes and beliefs about mental and substance use disorders. The workshop will explore lessons learned from previous media, communication, and other types of campaigns to change attitudes and behaviors in public health or other arenas. Workshop participants will explore design and outcomes of these campaigns including message development, platforms used for message delivery, targeted audiences, dose of the intervention (messaging), and related incentives. In discussions, we will examine the campaigns in terms of their attention to social determinants; degree of contact; and outcomes related to social inclusion, stakeholder engagement, and sustainability of change in social norms.
