Yes, the person who accompanies the person who has Parkinson's disease is most welcome. Whoever accompanies you, the same entry fee covers you both.
Actually, experience has taught us that if your spouse takes an active role and sings along also, it becomes a supportive helpful activity for both of you.
NO! Modest fees are suggested for most music therapy sessions. Once a person decides this music therapy is something they want to attend regularly, it is possible to pay a month or more in advance. But that is an individual choice. There are no contracts. The first session will be free of charge.
No. Our music therapy is for people with Parkinson's disease. The focus in our sessions addresses their needs. The incorporation and 501(c)(3) charity status clearly state the purpose of the group. We exist for people with PD and their families / caregivers.
The majority of our sources for grant funding comes from organizations which exist to serve people with Parkinson's disease. They expect us to use their funds for people with PD.
