The Freedom in Music Project

The Freedom in Music Project The purpose of the program is to bring permanent music and basic recording rooms into New Mexico's Long-Term Stay Youth Detention Centers.

The first music room is at the Bernalillo County Youth Detention/Services Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The program is running and guitar lessons have started! This program is to turn "detained" youth onto the power of music and off of unproductive behavior with the assistance of mentors. It is well documented that music can make a huge difference in a person's life
