Amplify. Grow. Empower.

Child abuse is an epidemic in the United States with more than 3 million reports of child abuse every year. The effects of child abuse can be long lasting and has proven to have cause physical, mental, social and emotional damage. The ACE study revealed that child abuse is the most costly health issue in the United States. Providing proven therapeutics will aid in early intervention. 

We believe in the power of music to transform lives and bring healing to body, mind and soul. Music is a universal language and positive connector for foster children. Bringing awareness to music education is a part of our work in helping create opportunity through community, networks and partnerships. We are dedicated to protecting the safety and integrity of children and building trusting relationships that develop strong mentorships for a lifetime. Studies show that primary education and music education go hand-in-hand. Studies show music education builds creative and critical thinking skills, self-esteem and life skills that contribute to success and academic improvement. Through music education, music therapy and other unique music educational experiences, Amped Kids is providing healing and a path to success for foster, adopted and at-risk youth.
