What is the problem you found?
How might we prevent substance abuse in our community and show adolescents the dangerous effects of substance abuse?
Customer / Problem
Our customers are teenagers in the community who are beginning to experiment with drugs and go down a path which could potentially lead to serious consequences.
What Is Your Solution?
Art of impact runs a program that invites recovered drug addicts to speak at events about their experience and battle with substance abuse. They will also create an interactive online game that touches on topics of substance abuse. The game connects emotionally to the user and allows them to build connections and have direct access to health support. All profits will go to rehabilitation centres to help the community overcome substance abuse.
Support Required
Connections
We will need to partner with various schools and rehabilitation centres.
Advice
We will need to identify new people that will bring new ideas to our program.
Development
We will need to find a game designer and a website designer.
