Adaptive Show Choir

What is Adaptive Show Choir?

Volunteers are paired one-on-one with individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities to learn music and basic choreography together in preparation for a concert at the end of the semester.

Volunteer Commitment : Volunteers must be able to commit to one full semester. During Fall and Winter there will be rehearsals every Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:00-6:30 pm (attend one weekday per week). There will also be a dress rehearsal and a concert at the end of the semester.

How do I get involved?

You will need to fill out a BYU Background check before volunteering. Please follow this link and find the "Background Check Request form" to get started. 

Please complete this mandatory 20 minute child protection training before you begin working with this program.

Experiences

We had a couple choir members in wheel chairs last semester and one of them didn't always like to dance with us. One day, though, she planted herself between me and my partner, Sara, and it was so fun to hold her hand and dance and sing with her! She got so excited when we did, too, and just wouldn't stop grinning. It's amazing to see how music and dance affects people in the most positive ways and it's such a blessing to be a part of that!

-Annie Allen

Hey you amazing, generous students! Just want to thank you for another wonderful semester of giving, singing, choreographing, creating, hugging, loving, and most of all, providing a community of belonging for a population that usually struggles to find that. I think you're doing one of the most important things on campus!
