Giving Voice Chorus: Defying Dementia through Singing

Giving Voice Chorus® is a performing community chorus for individuals living with Alzheimer's and their care partners. This highly regarded field-tested program is a replicable model that showcases the power of singing to help those with dementia live better lives and strengthen connections to their communities. In this session, an interdisciplinary team will present the chorus as a case study to review and share in depth the challenges and successes resulting from the initial pilot year program and subsequent two years of growth and development.
