Arts

Education Through Music-Los Angeles

At Education Through Music-Los Angeles (ETM-LA), we provide and promote the integration of music into the curricula of disadvantaged schools in order to enhance academic performance, and creative and general development. ETM-LA partners with inner-city elementary and middle schools across LA County to provide music as a core subject for all children. We believe in integrating music education into the school day so that every child has a well-rounded education that includes the arts. Music has the power to improve student performance, create positive spaces, and nurture children to become advocates for positive change.

Children

Saint Louis Crisis Nursery

The Saint Louis Crisis Nursery is committed to preventing child abuse and neglect.

The Crisis Nursery provides a short-term, safe haven for almost 5,000 children a year, birth through age 12, whose families face an emergency caused by illness, homelessness, domestic violence, or overwhelming parental stress. Providing respite care to stressed parents in crisis can prevent child abuse.

Parents bring children to one of five Nursery sites for 2-5 days free of charge and on a voluntary basis. While there, the children receive a medical exam, nutritious meals, trauma-informed care, and take-home necessities. Parents receive crisis counseling, in-home visits, and parent education groups at one of ten outreach centers. The Crisis Nursery provides care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, serving families throughout the greater St. Louis, St. Charles, Southern Illinois, and surrounding regions. The Crisis Nursery is an independent, not-for-profit agency.

In 34 years, we have served over 120,000 children. For more information go to www.CrisisNurseryKids.org

Rebuilding Lives

Warrior Expeditions

Warrior Expeditions is a non-profit outdoor therapy program that helps combat veterans transition from their military service through long-distance outdoor expeditions.

Veterans participate full-time for 3 – 6 months while hiking, biking, or paddling between 800 – 3,700 miles across 35 states. In addition to the therapeutic effects of long-term immersion in nature, Warrior Expeditions programs combine intense physical activity, psycho-educational training, veteran camaraderie, and community interaction to help veterans process and come to terms with their wartime experiences. Seven years of psychiatric data shows meaningful improvements in PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns after a Warrior Hike, Warrior Bike, or Warrior Paddle expedition.
