This program provides clients in the Freeman Family Day Centre and Apotex with the opportunity to participate in a choir program/community music therapy group. Each week, clients practice specific songs and work toward performance goals. The program, which is led by a music therapist, is modified to suit the abilities and functioning levels of the clients. Goals include promoting a sense of belonging and interaction within a community, and improving emotional wellbeing, health, and overall quality of life.
