AIM (Alcohol Intervention Meeting) is a weekly education/counseling group that helps students identify and implement safer, healthier choices regarding alcohol and drug use. The AIM format is a 10 session program with a curriculum that focuses on self-awareness, personal responsibility, self-motivation and the identification and restoration of personal values that have been affected by and cause alcohol abuse. The AIM group is facilitated by local treatment providers that are licensed and trained in substance abuse and mental health disciplines. The AIM counselors work in the Boston community, and are not Boston College administrators.
