Get Involved
As you explore my website, you may be wondering how you can get invovled and begin making a difference. Here I will provide some reasorces and oportunities for anyone and everyone to work to not only spread awarness but help us find a solution.
1. Volunteer
-
Memory-care facilities: Spend time playing music, leading activities, or just visiting with residents.
-
Local organizations: Look for senior centers, nursing homes, or hospitals with volunteer programs.
2. Share Your Story
-
Use the form on this site to tell me about your experiences with memory loss, caregiving, or music therapy.
-
Stories can inspire others, create a sense of community, and show families they’re not alone.
3. Support Music Therapy Programs
-
Consider donating to therapy centers or nonprofit organizations.
-
Find or consider hosting a fundraiser where proceeds go toward memory-care facilities or a research foundation
4. Educate Yourself & Others
-
Consider indulging in your own research and exploring all the ways music can help patient care.
-
Share what you learn by posting on social media or talking to friends and family. Raising awareness is one of the most powerful ways to create change.
5. Connect & Collaborate
-
Reach out if you’re a therapist, caregiver, student, or anyone who wants to contribute ideas or resources.
-
You may even want to create a project of your own inspired by this one or some of the many others that can help us get closer to a solution.
6. Advocate

Spread the word about how non-pharmaceutical methods like music therapy can support memory care.
