Community Initiative

This toolkit includes media posts fighting the stigma of addiction and encouraging treatment, as well as posts spotlighting Recovery Cards Project, naloxone, treatment resources, and more. The posts can be downloaded to your device or shared directly to your preferred social media platform.

How it Works?

About Lift The Label
Lift The Label is a public awareness campaign that strives to remove damaging labels and stigma that prevent those with addiction from seeking effective treatment. The campaign is run by the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration and is funded through a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that leads public health efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation.

Learn more about treatment resources, watch and read stories of Colorado residents, and learn how to support a loved one at LiftTheLabel.org.
Support The Campaign
To request physical Lift The Label campaign resources, such as posters, brochures, or rack cards, please visit this page on the Lift The Label website. All materials are free and available to Colorado residents while supplies last.

Learn more about the Recovery Cards Project at RecoveryCardsProject.com

Colorado residents can order physical cards for free, and anyone can download or share digital versions of the cards from the website.

International Overdose Awareness Day - August 31st

This International Overdose Awareness Day, we pause to remember and honor the lives of those lost to overdose. We recognize the families, friends, and communities who continue to carry their memory, and we stand with them.

Today is also an opportunity to learn how to use naloxone, a medication that rapidly reverses an overdose. Learning how to recognize an overdose and carrying naloxone can make a life saving difference. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with how to use it. You never know when your knowledge could help someone in need.

Together, we can honor those we've lost by raising awareness, supporting one another, and helping prevent future overdoses.

A Key Part

For many, medications for opioid use disorder are an important part of beginning and sustaining a recovery journey. Since everyone’s path to recovery is different, we should support the use of medication as an important form of treatment rather than stigmatize it.


Learn about medication options and treatment resources at LiftTheLabel.org/GetHelp.
