Expressions of a BraveHeart

Expressions of a BraveHeart Each week, participants select two of the three classes offered simultaneously.

Expressions of BraveHeart Fine Arts Program is dedicated to providing art, music and dance opportunities to excited, talented teens (11-22) with special needs. Expressions of a Brave Heart is a Fine Arts Program offering art, music and dance classes bi-monthly for teens and young adults, ages 11-22 with moderate to severe disabilities. Unique to this program, compared to other programs offered t

hrough community recreation centers, each participant is matched with a primary coach, an AU student volunteer, whose role is to facilitate maximum benefit through participation by providing one-on-one attention, support and encouragement based on individual needs. The teens /young adults experience self determination in deciding which class to register for session A (30 minutes) and session B (30 minutes). Each class has two teachers, including one teacher who has expertise in the specific discipline (art, music, or dance) and one teacher who has experience working effectively with special needs populations. Expressions of a BraveHeart represents a model collaborative partnership between Auburn University and Opelika Parks and Recreation Department. In January 2011, BraveHearts was awarded the Alabama Recreation and Parks Association’s 2010 Innovative Program of the Year Award for cities with populations of 15,001 or more.
