AIM (Action In Movement)
AIM exposes the normalization of substance use by youth to dispel the false sense of community that users are internalized to feel within the culture.
​
We exist because we all have been affected by substance use disorder (SUD) on a personal level, whether that be at school or in our home lives. We also strongly believe in fighting to make our community a better place.
​
We are fighting for awareness, making resources available and providing solutions. We are also fighting to educate youth on the dangers of SUD.
​
We aim to stop the funnel that leads the youth to SUD, the stigma surrounding reaching out for help, and getting rid of the barriers to resources.
