Music therapy is a clinical and evidenced-based practice that uses music to engage, support, and build connection. Therapeutic music experiences are utilized to address goals that enhance health and wellbeing and are based on our client’s needs, strengths, and responses. Music is a powerful tool for people with dementia as it enables the brain to have successful engagement and participation even late into the disease progression. The team at Greater Chicago Music Therapy Inc. will encourage the participants to sing, play instruments, connect with each other, and have fun at the Memory Cafe! This event takes place at the Orland Park Public Library and is for people living with dementia and other forms of cognitive impairment and their care partners.

Registration Required.
