Project Description
With support from the California Arts Council, Maya’s Music Therapy Fund will provide free and low cost music therapy to 101 youth and adults with developmental disabilities in individual and group sessions throughout the Bay Area. Through consistent weekly music therapy sessions, participants will develop artistic, cognitive, and social skills based on individualized goals.
Organization Summary
Maya’s Music Therapy Fund’s board certified music therapists work with people with disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy, Down’s syndrome, brain injury, hearing and vision impairment, ADHD, Rett syndrome, and other developmental disabilities. Experiencing the unique power of music to engage our brains and our bodies, clients gain physical and social skills while building self-esteem and confidence during individual and group music therapy sessions. MMTF also collaborates with agencies and existing programs that serve people with disabilities from Alameda, Contra Costa, and San Francisco Counties in Northern California.
Our main programs are:
– Individual music therapy sessions
– Group music therapy sessions
– Our annual Maya’s Spring Music Festival where participants perform and celebrate their talents with an audience of supportive friends and family
