For over 10 years, Stories Love Music has provided caregivers with the creative tools to manage the challenging behaviors of those they care for, as well as attend to their own stress management and self-care. Stories Love Music has empathy for the caregiver and created The Joy of Creative Engagement program using the interdisciplinary field of neuroarts to care for the caregivers.

Stories Love Music celebrates both music and story telling traditions in our history and their positive effects on emotional and physical health of our individuals living with dementia and Alzheimer’s and their caregivers.

PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

Reduce anxiety and depression of caregivers and individuals living with dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Explore connection between music, storytelling and emotional health.

Support caregivers in managing the reactive emotions of the individuals living with dementia and Alzheimer’s they care for and themselves.

Provide caregivers tools for their own self-care and their caregiving which prevents long term burnout.
