The Resounding
Joy mission is to promote social, emotional, physical, and spiritual
well-being through music.
Resounding Joy uses principles and
approaches developed from professional
music therapy practice to train
non-musician volunteers—Joy
Givers—to provide supportive
music services to Joy
Receivers—adults and children
with special needs. Resounding Joy
builds partnerships
among community-based
and faith-based organizations and Joy Receiver referrals
from any source.
By the end
of July 2009, Resounding Joy
had served more than 25,000 adults
and children with special needs,
including the following:
.
homeless individuals served by Third
Avenue Charitable Organization
.
children and adults homebound by
illness or physical disability
.
adults confined to Encinitas
Nursing & Rehabilitation Center
.
older adults enrolled in Redwood
Elderlink daycare program
.
children enrolled in Sound
Minds, an early-intervention
program
made possible by California
School Age Families Education
Annual fundraising events now generate income required
to sustain and expand the program. Resounding Joy gratefully accepts tax deductible
donations. Learn how you can help.»
