Our Impact
In Band of the Strong’s first year of operation we brought music to kids at the Munroe Meyer Institute in Omaha, which is a center for kids with disabilities. In summer two, we brought music to Mourning Hope Grief Center and local after-school programs in Lincoln, Nebraska. In the summer of 2018 and the Spring of 2019, Band of the Strong again worked with Mourning Hope and Grief’s Journey out of Omaha Nebraska. In the years of 2020 and 2021, we continued our work in spite of COVID-19, returning to Camp Munroe and Grief’s Journey.
In the years since, we have continued to expand on our programming, solidifying it in the context of a tiered system, that builds rapport with youth in the communities we serve, to provide them a consistent platform to express themselves and find restoration in their own dignity.
