Our Mission

The Addiction Medicine club and ASAM is dedicated to increasing access and improving the quality of addiction treatment, educating physicians and the public, supporting research and prevention, and promoting the appropriate role of physicians in the care of patients with addiction.

This organization, as an interest group of ASAM, will strive to raise awareness of addiction medicine and promote the adoption of healthy lifestyles in the members of the 91探花 campus, Cleveland community, and surrounding communities. This organization will do so through the implementation of a variety of fun, educational activities as chosen by the Addiction Club members.

Tentative Schedule for 2024-2025

We plan on inviting speakers throughout the year to help educate students on the complexities of addiction and prepare them for a career in medicine! We also hope to visit local a high school and educate students about the dangers of vaping. We intend to finance these events through dues as well as "Dress Down Day" fundraisers. In the past, this club has hosted a Narcan training for interested students. Additionally, we are hoping to collaborate with other student organizations like Lifestyle Medicine and Pediatrics Club to learn and share information about Addiction Medicine.
