Vision

We imagine a world where healing through the arts can be accessed anywhere, by anyone.

Purpose

To improve individual and community health through healing-centered arts experiences aimed at stress reduction and social support—without any stigma of mental health.
To refine the support process for creative expression to maximize engagement and dialogue in the context of trauma, culture, neurodiversity, and lived experience.
To mitigate the increasing societal health care burden from chronic diseases rooted in emotions and behavior.
To increase access to healing, connection, and resilience through easy-to-implement arts approaches in health care, educational, and recreational settings—creating a public health safety net.
To provide a humanizing complement to increasingly technological medical care that can enhance the environment of treatment.
To secure the place of the arts in our culture by validating their health benefits and exposing youth to their transformative value through insights gained from supportive experiences.
To amplify the quality of arts experiences for the dual benefit of the public as well as service providers.
