Free Arts for Abused Children of Arizona

Free Arts uses the healing powers of the arts to help abused and homeless children build resiliency and learn to trust and heal. All of the children in Free Arts programs have experienced combinations of family trauma, homelessness, and violence. To begin to heal, they need services including mentoring, a caring community, and an opportunity to learn new skills and express themselves. We Believe: Art Heals – The creative arts transform and inspire lives. Every Child Matters – All children have the right to be cared for and respected. Mentoring Works – Mentoring builds resilience by helping children identify their strengths and increase their confidence. Vision To be the premier resource for the healing effects of the arts in children through programming, advocacy, resource development and education
