Our Mission
Music Mends Minds is a nonprofit that strives to foster worldwide communities among afflicted individuals and their families, friends, volunteers, and caregivers, all of whom can thrive on socialization and music-making. ​
​
We create musical support groups for individuals with Alzheimer’s, dementia, Parkinson’s, traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and other neurological disorders. This support has taken the form of 50 bands, drum circles, and other music groups in over 10 countries and is still growing. Our goal is to restore the rhythm of life, reconnecting and empowering all individuals and communities suffering from neurodegenerative diseases and more through music.
Through music, we restore the rhythm of life
