Addiction affects not only the individual, but also the family. AIM’s OASAS programs help individuals and their families through the long journey of recovery and healing. These confidential and free programs are funded by the Office of Mental Health (OMH) and the New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS).
