As a group we have performed in many places for different audiences but we all agree that the work we do with young people is by far the most rewarding. To see how the music can bring out feelings and change attitudes from the time we begin to when we leave is truly magical.

        

               
What Are They Saying About Special Angel

Our interactive and educational musical presentation connects with teens that are usually hard to reach. Effectiveness is measured by Program Evaluations filled out by the teens themselves with many requests for return visits. Their responses have helped us to continually grow and know that our approach is working.

           One of the most touching messages we received was from a 
           16 year old male at Camp Kilpatrick,
a probation camp of the 
           Los Angeles Juvenile Court System
He said he thought other kids would like our program 
   "because too many kids are slipping into darkness."

"Every kid in trouble needs a Special Angel ~
We all have it in us to be one."
