Bravo Dani!

Thanks for letting us know. 

Is it possible to get a copy of this particular section so that others might
use it as an example for their facility?

Subject: [Adta] Dance therapy in annual report

 

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
