About Stop Judging
We are dedicated to ending the stigma associated with diseases and disorders by fostering understanding, empathy, and community support for those facing health challenges.
Our Mission
To eliminate disease stigma through education, advocacy, and community building. We believe that everyone deserves to face health challenges with dignity, support, and compassion rather than judgment and discrimination.
Our Story
Founded by healthcare advocates and individuals with lived experience, Stop Judging emerged from the recognition that stigma causes harm as real as any physical symptom. We work to create environments where people can seek care without fear, share experiences without shame, and build connections without judgment.
