[Adta] Dance therapy in annual report

[Danielle Fraenkel]

Hi Everyone,
I'm proud to say that an administrator of Heritage Christian Services 
here in Rochester, NY wrote a story about dance therapy for Heritage's 
Annual Report. They gave the report out at the annual meeting earlier 
this month. Assuming that everyone thumbs through the report and 
discovers the page length picture and article,  at least 1600 more 
people will now be familiar with the term, dance therapy. The writer, 
the director of the (Opportunities for People through Services) OPTS 
program, painted pictures of the clients' movement and described  the 
affective changes she saw during the sessions Leigh Collins, a dmt 
student at Kinections, led.

Heritage, a bench mark agency for adults with developmental 
disabilities, is so committed to dmt that its Vice President repeatedly 
sought our input when they drew up the plans for a dance therapy studio 
in their  new, state of the art  Life Center. It's built next to the 
Music Therapy Room and Sound Studio, so there will be opportunities for 
interdisciplinary and innovative work. The Center opens early next year. 

What's also wonderful  is that Heritage reached out to Kinections for 
services.  As the DMT supervisor, I get to see what the folks at 
Heritage do across the agency. It's impressive. My hope is that we will 
be able to expand the dmt program once the Life Center opens,

Dani Fraenkel
