Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Six Workshops open to members of the public with diagnosis of mental illness will be held in the ballroom of the Huss Center for Recovery, located in South Minneapolis near Park and Franklin. 84 in-program weekly workshops will take place in eight of People Incorporated’s more than 40 locations serving individuals in neighborhoods throughout out the seven-county metropolitan area, in centers and clinics for both in- and outpatient treatment. These programs serve all ages, from youth in K-12 Day Treatment, to outreach to adults experiencing homelessness, and live-in Adult Foster Care facilities. To track our goal of increased awareness of, impact, and attendance at Artability Workshops in our 25th year, we plan to conduct Informal surveys of artists after the workshops, an online survey of program staff (for in-program workshops) and an online survey of Teaching Artists. We will also count the number of public and private workshops, and attendees at each (a duplicated number).

Measurable Outcome(s)

172 Total Workshops were held with 1,063 Total Attendees. 97% of artists were able to improve or at least maintain their anxiety/stress level through their participation. Pre and post-?Feelings" recorded primarily ranged from ?anxious" or ?nervous" in the Beginning of Class Survey to ?Relaxed" and ?Happy" in the End of Class Survey.
