Measuring Impact
The purpose of these Art Therapy sessions is to provide all adolescents with equal opportunity to live a positive and healthy lifestyle by hosting educational sessions and fostering a comforting environment through the healing benefits of art therapy.
A great outlet to measure the impact of your sessions is to instruct the participants, during their last session, to make a creative poster with a quick summary of all the mental health topics they learned during your sessions.
