AudAbility™ is an evidence-based program designed by board-certified music therapists at MusicWorx to support people living with Parkinson’s disease and their care partners. Through music therapy and wellness approaches, we empower individuals to cultivate a greater quality of life. AudAbility™ participants engage in music-based interventions, including singing, movement, instrument play, songwriting, and mindfulness. We can help participants improve and maintain critical functions such as speech, swallowing, breath capacity, fine & gross motor skills, and cognition. We also support social-emotional needs and use music therapy to alleviate depression, anxiety, and isolation. No music experience is needed to participate!

This is a 12-week program held every Thursday from April 9th, 2026, to June 25th, 2026. Participants who register intend to commit to all 12 weeks. Previous program participants may register. Individuals interested in attending individual classes may register or be added to the waitlist if there is room or a cancellation from another participant. The final session will also include a recital for friends and family to enjoy.

This is a program sponsored by the Grossmont Healthcare District, with priority given to people with an East County connection, those who live, work, attend school, or access health care services within the boundaries of the District. If all spots have been filled, we’ll add you to our waitlist and notify you of any changes. If there is space available, other community members may attend.
