Pilot music-therapy workshops report small early turnout; organizers considering Revere TV recording
Summary
Commission members said a pilot series of music-therapy workshops run with Revere Parks and Recreation had modest early participation (about three families in the younger group, one in the older group); organizers plan two more sessions and are exploring recording a session for Revere TV to reach more families.
Commission members provided an update on a pilot music-therapy collaboration between the Revere Parks and Recreation Department and the Commission on Disabilities.
A staff update to the commission reported that the first sessions showed modest participation: about three families in the younger group and one family in the older group. Organizers said two additional workshops remain in the pilot series; commission members discussed arranging for Revere TV to record one of the remaining sessions so families who cannot attend in person could view it later.
Members noted barriers that may limit attendance, including scheduling and transportation, and suggested outreach through CPAC and other community channels. A member offered to follow up with Parks and Recreation and with Jen (a coordinator referenced in the meeting) to confirm whether Revere TV can record the workshop and which session would be best to capture.
Ending: Commission members agreed to monitor attendance and to consider recorded outreach to broaden access if in-person turnout remains limited.
