How do you increase your program's visibility and demonstrate its value to leadership within healthcare institutions? Learn the basics of educating senior healthcare professionals and administr...ators on the important contributions the arts make in health and well-being. Begin marketing, not just to your clients and community, but to those stakeholders who can lend vital support to your endeavors at all levels of your organization. It takes a village to support an arts program in today's healthcare environment. Indeed, many healthcare organizations are like small communities. Discover effective strategies for cultivating recognition and support within your healthcare institution, not only for the intrinsic value of the work, but for how it supports efforts to increase philanthropy, corporate and community support and can bring increased visibility to your institution.
