CHANGING THE 
NARRATIVE

Changing The Narrative is a network of reporters, researchers, academics, and advocates concerned about the way  media represents drug use and addiction. Our mission is to help journalists and opinion leaders provide accurate, humane, and scientifically-grounded information in this contested terrain. We offer expert sources — including people with lived experience of the issues — and up-to-date, fact-checked, and evidence-based information on news and controversies.
