Our members with developmental disabilities were included in a community-wide event with typical peers to showcase their songwriting skills; they gained skills, knowledge, and confidence on expressing themselves in written word; and members used assistive technology - IPAD & Talk to Text to help them communicate their creations. Attendee & financial information were collected for classes/events, participants were asked to rate each class on a fist to five scale and asked for class feedback; and class leaders met after each class to evaluate the day and, if needed, modify things for the next class.
