Advocacy and Intervention for Medical Students (AIMS)
General Information

Mission:
Advocacy and Intervention for Medical Students (AIMS) was set up by students and faculty interested in providing a resource for students which is outside of the administration. Faculty members serve at the invitation of elected student members. Our chief goals are to provide education, support, and advocacy for students whose lives may be adversely affected by a variety of problems including, but not limited to, alcohol abuse, chemical dependence, eating disorders, depression, anxiety and other mental health problems. Members of the AIMS Committee are trained to address acute as well as non-urgent questions students may have about themselves or a classmate. All referrals are handled confidentially. More information is available in a detained brochure which will be distributed to all medical students in the early fall.
