AIM Programming
By living in an apartment surrounded by friends with IDD and within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and a library, residents are able to live a more typical adult life. AIM activities to promote independence include:
- Monday Group - A weekly facilitator-led meeting for AIMers to learn and socialize with each other.
- Socials - Five socials per month for AIMers and Prospective AIMers. Four are fun, active events led by volunteers and the other is typically social in nature.
- Exercise Club - A weekly exercise session led by an AIM parent and held in the exercise room of the apartment complex to help promote an active lifestyle.
- AIM Sparks Basketball - AIM's Special Olympics Basketball team
- Volunteer Opportunities - AIMers give back by volunteering in the community.
- Downtime - By design, AIM leaves plenty of empty spaces in AIMers lives. Space they can use to do nothing, unwind, or plan their own activities with their friends.
- Transportation - So AIMers can get to work and AIM activities.
