At The Action For Rural Development Organisation (ARDO), we are deeply committed to building a healthier, safer, and drug-free Manipur. Substance abuse not only damages health but also disrupts families, weakens communities, and limits opportunities for the future. Our mission is to prevent drug misuse, support recovery, and foster an environment where every individual can live free from addiction.

We work at the grassroots level to raise awareness, connect individuals to treatment, and involve communities in proactive prevention. Our approach combines education, rehabilitation support, and community engagement to address the root causes and long-term effects of drug abuse.

Key Focus Areas of Our Commitment

• Awareness & Education: Conducting school, college, and community-based programs to inform youth and families about the dangers of drug use.

• Rehabilitation Support: Linking individuals to certified treatment centres and counselling services for recovery and reintegration.

• Family & Community Involvement: Strengthening family bonds, reducing stigma, and mobilizing communities to actively participate in prevention efforts.

• Youth Engagement: Promoting sports, cultural activities, and skill development as healthy alternatives to substance use.

• Capacity Building: Training educators, health workers, and community leaders to identify early signs of substance abuse and provide timely guidance.

Through Drug Free Manipur, ARDO aims to inspire change, restore hope, and create a future where our youth can thrive in a safe and supportive environment.
