#stoptheshuffle
The #stoptheshuffle campaign, inspired by the documentary Shuffle, addresses corruption and fraud in the addiction treatment industry through a national initiative focussed on public awareness, education and empowerment, promoting a shared responsibility for change and advocating for policy reform in collaboration with community and state leadership. It’s led by Benjamin Flaherty, the director of Shuffle, and supported by NGO’s like Enrich KY, Advocates for Responsible Treatment and Faces and Voices of Recovery.
CAMPAIGN PILLARS
Public Awareness & Engagement
We’ll tour the film nationally, targeting affected areas, with screenings and discussions in collaboration with local non-profits. In addition, we’ll release a book titled the “the ABC’s of Addiction Treatment” an illustrated and informative guide to empower and inform.
Institutional Accountability
Schedule one off screenings to coincide with institutional gatherings, like JP Morgan Chase’s Annual Behavioral Health Summit, or The Recovery Leadership Summit in DC in June.
Political Advocacy
Promote and support policy changes at the state level in collaboration with NGO’s like Advocates for Responsible Treatment in CA. Create awareness and dialogue with political opposition.
Education
Programs and screenings in educational settings like Counseling, Behavioral Health, Nursing and Public Policy. Our first impact screening is presented by the UCLA Documentary Film Legal Clinic at the UCLA School of Law.
Media and Social Media
We’ll use traditional and social media to create awareness and engagement, foster community and share information about the issue.
