Drug poisoning deaths have increased by 75% in Texas over the last five years. In hopes of ending the stigma surrounding substance-use disorders, hundreds of people are expected to gather in Dallas Saturday for a walk sponsored by the nonprofit Shatterproof. The Shatterproof Walk to End Addiction Stigma will bring together advocates, families and those in recovery who want to see addictions addressed with more compassion.
