Arts Program - Connecticut Hospice

The Connecticut Hospice Difference

 Connecticut Hospice Arts Program is a multifaceted program, staffed 365 days a year by a full-time arts director and several board-certified music and art therapists.
Connecticut Hospice was the first to integrate arts with hospice care and include the arts in the interdisciplinary team approach.
2013 Winner of the New Haven Arts Council Arts Award
We were the first to receive funding for the Arts Program from The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA).  The NEA was the first governmental organization to promote integration of the arts in health care, and their early leadership enabled Connecticut Hospice to establish their Arts Program in 1979.
Recognized as a teaching model by Veterans Administration Community Living Center in Washington, DC, American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, and Society for Arts in Healthcare.
