Shawn Wiggins, BA

Shawn is a Clinical Research Coordinator and Substance Use Navigator at CAMP. He graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. During his studies, he was involved in research exploring the potential for behavioral modifications to reduce opioid medication misuse in chronic pain patients. He also volunteered at Johns Hopkins Hospital’s Harriet Lane Clinic as a resource navigator for the families of pediatric patients. Shawn’s interest in substance use research and treatment began when local health officials visited his high school to speak about the opioid crisis. Now, he is committed to serving those with SUDs, reducing stigma, and exploring addiction medicine. One of his favorite things to do at CAMP is attend outreach events where he can engage with community members and provide education on substance use treatment and recovery. In his free time, Shawn enjoys watching movies, going to the gym, meditation, and professional wrestling.
