A Message From CHAP Children’s Healing Art Project (CHAP) stands in support of the Black Community and believes that Black Lives Matter. We oppose racism, discrimination, police brutality, and violence of all kinds. The senseless killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and many others are heartbreaking examples of systemic racism that must end. In recent weeks, we have been listening and learning with open hearts and minds. This has been a time of clarity and reflection. We believe everyone in our community is impacted – including the children and families CHAP serves. We know there is more to learn and more to do as we continue our mission – to bring the healing power of art to children and families facing medical challenges. CHAP is committed. Period. We will take action and share our progress. With CREATIVITY + HEALING, Lori Long, President, Board of Directors and Barb Continue reading CHAP Statement – Black Lives Matter By Southern Oregon Artists Resource, 1982 contributed posts

There’s no doubt that these are very challenging times for everyone…and the children CHAP serves are no exception. Imagine what it’s like for the little ones still in the hospitals facing their own medical challenges with limited visitors, everyone fully gowned and masked, and no CHAP Teaching Artists making their usual rounds. And the children who are home, unable to play with other kids and no CHAP Art Club to enjoy with friends at the studio. Art heals. And we all could use some healing right now. So, CHAP is doing what we do best — we’re getting creative to serve kids and families in brand new ways!
