The Katies take on the drums together! 🥁

For adults with IDD, music therapy creates opportunities to build skills, make choices, connect with others, and simply enjoy the moment. We love seeing our adults make music together and experience all the joy that comes with it! 💙

Our Fairview Day Program is looking a little brighter thanks to some helping hands! 🌿

We’re so grateful to the Saint Thomas volunteer group who spent Friday tackling yard work and helping care for the space our program participants enjoy each day. A big thank-you to Hands On Nashville for connecting us with such a great group!

We’re reminded again and again that volunteers are an important part of what makes our work possible. Thank you for showing up, pitching in & helping us move our mission forward! 💙
