Music impacts our lives; it can also be a catalyst for social connection and support. Communities can use music programs to create inclusive spaces where people can come together and build relationships. Music has influenced personal transformation for centuries, and its power can be seen in many different contexts, including churches, concert halls, and even in jetliners. ACWE's blog posts reflect transformative power that impact our lives.
