Research shows that the arts can significantly improve the lives of individuals with disabilities.
Using the arts as an equalizing influence allows individuals with and without disabilities to benefit from their creative skills. Currently, AiM's programmes work to augment and increase skills through the arts. Future programmes will also address the need to prevent the double handicap of disability and poverty through employment training opportunities. AiM is keen to work with other organisations by offering a 2 day training course for management and staff. The course focuses on skills, attitudes and knowledge about disbilities, and helps to identify low cost ways to improve services.
