Melodic Caring Project
Innovative leaders in health and social care are always looking for evidence-based, scalable solutions that can meaningfully improve care. Music care is a transformative approach that’s making measurable, sustainable change in care settings.
We provide music care tools, training, and certification. Our innovative music care approach has helped over 6,000 caregivers be able to provide hands-on, person-centred care for a richer care experience. We empower you to provide effective music care.

Concerts in Care Ontario
"We are a diverse community of creatives. Poets and musicians, artists and athletes. Advocates and activists. Performers and communicators of all kinds. Bringing more than a show. Messengers bringing more than a mantra or manifesto. The “scrap masses.” A motley crew. Often battle scarred and broken... but, as we come together, stand together, and serve together; a beautiful diversity."
Healing, Hopeful, Determined.
We will not stand silent.
