Melodies for the Mind, a musical and magical event to benefit Unlimited Solutions Clubhouse will be held at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 8, 2025

Melodies for the Mind, a magical musical event to benefit Unlimited Solutions Clubhouse will be held at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 8, 2025 at the Gracie Theater at Husson University. The fundraiser will be held during National Mental Health Awareness Month. The stigma around mental health and treatment has long existed, even though this has started to change. Still, people hesitate to seek help or even talk about it with their loved ones for fear of being judged and facing unnecessary backlash. Simple logic dictates that if we are hurt anywhere, we must seek treatment to get better. This applies to both our mental- and physical well-being. This event brings awareness to taking care of ourselves and others.
Unlimited Solutions Clubhouse, a program that fosters a community that focuses on helping adults with anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, Bi-Polar Disorder, PTSD, etc to live vocationally meaningful and socially satisfying lives. The Clubhouse helps members return to work and school, live independently, and develop a social support network. In this collaborative, restorative environment, members gain access to opportunities to join the worlds of friendships, family, community, employment and education, and to the services and support they may need. The evening will include performances by Maine Street R&B Revue and Ryan Lally, a magician and mentalist from Boston.
