"Musical Expressions"-Fall Preschool Music Groups
Submitted by ehaynes on Sun, 07/24/2011 - 17:56Erin Haynes, board certified music therapist, is leading a preschool music and movement group! Musical Expressions is a fun, interactive group where children ages 2-5 and their caregivers will participate in a variety of music-making activities to stimulate creativity, cognitive development, and socialization. Each class will be based on a children’s book. We will read/sing the story then participate in music activities that reinforce the theme. We will conclude the class with a snack and time for participants to get to know each other better.

Worker Justice Clinic A Success
Submitted by apridgen on Mon, 10/11/2010 - 13:00We had two workers come in for our clinic this past Thursday, but we also worked on claims that were already in process. We hope to have small (business-sized) cards available within the next couple of weeks for you to pick up. The idea is to hand the cards out to construction workers you might pass on a job site, and to restaurant staff and just about everyone you meet. Wage theft is a common problem in Johnson County and we want to raise awareness as well as provide resources to those who need help.
