The Alternatives to the Military Project is a youth-led counter-recruitment effort started out of the Mid-South Peace and Justice Center. Since 2005 AMP has been leafletting high-schools, tabling at careers fairs, and stocking guidance offices with information on alternatives careers to joining the military.
This booklet is a great resource for any youth in the Memphis area looking for their next steps after high school. This resource shows them that there is an alternative way to “get out” and into college besides joining up.
