Katie Harrill has seen what music can do for people’s social and emotional states.
As the supervisor of the Creative Arts Program and one of many music therapists at Wesley Family Services, Harrill has extensively worked with clients across various developmental stages. Despite the program’s inception 23 years ago, she holds a hint of regret for not initiating the recital until 14 years ago.
Reflecting on this, she said, “I wish I’d launched the recital 23 years ago, right when we kick-started the program.”
