Columbus Resident Musical Therapy

Columbus Residence is a long-term care facility in Vancouver that is home to people with dementia and other types of complex care issues. Through twice-weekly musical therapy sessions, the residents are able to engage, connect and express themselves through different music-based activities, creating trust, mental stimulation and self-expression. The funding the facility receives through Community Gaming Grants ensures the resident music therapist can continue to enrich the lives of the Columbus Residence occupants.
