Measurable Outcome(s)

This grant funding allowed us to expand on our arts and music therapy program within our Home as our capacity grew coming out of the pandemic. We have music therapists in our Home 2x/week every week of the year, artists from Ziggy's Art Bus, integrative therapists, and have added a Child Experience Specialist who provides oversight to our therapists and music and arts actvities to the children who stay at Crescent Cove. We conducted formal surveys of families after their child's stay with us and received positive feedback on their overall stay, especially the arts and music therapy provided. Our goal at Crescent Cove is to make moments count for children with life threatening conditions and their families who love them, so often times, parents and siblings are involved in the arts experiences or artistic and musical pieces are made for the family. Our expenses in 2021 exceeded the amount determined during the grant cycle and we met our goal of providing more arts and music to children.
