It’s time to vote and spread the word. Let’s work together to help the staff of Admiral Seymour Elementary and the kids of our inner-city.
The kids of Admiral Seymour Elementary are semi-finalists in the Aviva Community Fund Competition. The school has proposed to equip a space and enlist an Expresive Art Therapist.
“Our goal is to set up and provide our students with a well equipped therapeutic art room where an Expressive Art Therapist (EXAT) can counsel our emotionally fragile students. EXATs are trained in child centered therapy through the use of drawing, painting, music, dance/movement, storytelling, journaling, sculpting, play, drama etc. We would use the funding to successfully create an inviting, resource filled Therapeutic art room. Any remaining money would be used to top up our Art therapist’s time so that we would have a full time therapist from January 2012 until June 2013. ”
