Please check the ArtReach website for the next opportunity to be on a team with other public health professionals to organize and provide expressive arts programs for children who have been emotionally traumatized. The ArtReach Foundation will pay for all expenses excluding spending money.
"My dear colleagues this is a spiritually uplifting adventure that is sure to make you once again glad to be an art therapist. This program demonstrates the ineffable power of our profession, and especially its effects on the world. YES. I do mean that it affects the world. One of the school districts in Bosnia has incorporated parts of the program into its curriculum. Do email so we can talk. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity."
