Description
The mission of the Art Therapy Institute (ATI) is to adv ance the well-
being and mental health of div erse North Carolinians through
accessible, strengths-based, culturally responsiv e art therapy; to
further support our communities through local ev ents and
professional dev elopment opportunities; to contribute to and uphold
research, theory, and practice of the creativ e arts therapies.
ATI's staff consists of four salaried clinicians and fiv e contract
clinicians, two of whom are Latinx. ATI’s Board currently has nine
DocuSign Envelope ID: 15BA7CC0-0FAE-4533-B157-F8F68CE2CBE6
members, four of whom are women of color. Of the 5 interns ATI has
this year, 3 are women of color.
In total, ATI serv es approximately 650 children and adults each year.
ATI’s two largest programs – The Exceptional Children’s Program
and the Newcomers Art Therapy Program – take place within public
school systems. During the school year, ATI clinicians prov ide art
therapy serv ices to more than 100 children (K-12) with intellectual
and physical disabilities in Orange County. Through group therapy,
EC children dev elop creativ e expression, interact with peers and
learn social skills, and gain a sense of mastery through the creativ e
process. ATI also works with adults liv ing with intellectual and
dev elopmental disorders. ATI clinicians use art-making to help these
clients identify and accept their emotions; increase their ability to
communicate in a group atmosphere; and dev elop a sense of
assurance that positiv ely impacts their educational and v ocational
pursuits.
ATI’s Newcomers Program serv es more than 350 refugee and
immigrant children and adults from more than 40 countries
worldwide. Through this program, newcomers are prov ided
accessible, art-based mental health serv ices across the Triangle and
Triad regions of North Carolina. In addition to serv ing newcomer
children in the school systems, ATI also offers art therapy to adults
through the Carrboro Community Health Center, monthly women’s
groups and through groups offered by Church W orld Serv ices in
Durham. Newcomers present with a unique set of mental health
concerns. Beyond the potential - and probable -trauma experienced
before and during migration to the United States, newcomers also
contend with difficulties experienced post-arriv al, including language
and cultural barriers, financial concerns, ongoing legal battles,
homesickness, ethnic discrimination, and other barriers to housing,
employment, and education. ATI’s Newcomers Program helps clients
express and process this complex trauma, build confidence lev els,
learn social skills, and acquire acculturation practices.
ATI’s Arts and Peer Support Group serv es div erse adults liv ing with a
range of sev ere and persistent mental illnesses. Using the
expressiv e arts, group members learn to celebrate themselv es as
artists and integral community members rather than as stigmatized
people. ATI does not charge a fee for participants to attend this
weekly program. This commitment to mental health accessibility has
helped under-resourced community members attend this group
since 2011.
In addition to these three programs, ATI prov ides art therapy to
adults liv ing with dementia as well as general population indiv iduals.
ATI offers a v ariety of professional training opportunities and
internships for community members. ATI also hosts community art
shows which celebrate our clients and their work as well as the work
of artists liv ing in our community.

Deficit/Surplus In recent years, the Art Therapy Institute (ATI) has experienced a
significant amount of growth. Our surplus from FY2018-2019 allowed
us to hire more staff. Our rev enue for the most recent fiscal year, FY
2019-2020, appears low compared to our expenses. Howev er, we did
acquire a Paycheck Protection Loan which is not counted as income
yet in Quickbooks because we hav e not yet applied for it to be
forgiv en. W e do anticipate that the full amount will be forgiv en.
Also, of note, ATI has just taken steps to change the organization's
fiscal year from January 1-December 31 to July 1-June 30. For that
reason, our proposed budget for the current year reflects our
prev ious fiscal year. Our board is on summer break and has not yet
adjusted the budget to reflect the new fiscal year.

Request Summary The Art Therapy Institute (ATI) is requesting rent support from the
Orange County Arts Commission. Currently ATI has two offices: One
is for clinical work and is located at Carr Mill Mall in Carrboro, NC. In
this office, ATI therapists see indiv idual clients and run groups. ATI
also uses this space to prov ide clinical superv ision to staff and
interns, and to host monthly, community-wide art exhibits featuring
our clients and area artists. Additionally, the Carr Mill Office is where
all of the organization's confidential clinical files are safely stored.
The second office space is used for administrativ e purposes. This
office, also in Carrboro, is located at Youthworx, a youth-serv ing
nonprofit collaborativ e powered by CommunityW orx and Youth
Forward, which builds capacity for Triangle organizations through
collaboration. At Youthworx, ATI shares office space with two other
nonprofits: Reintegration Support Network and Refugee Community
Partnership.
Combined, the rent on these two spaces is $1,233.00 per month.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 15BA7CC0-0FAE-4533-B157-F8F68CE2CBE6
Organizational Goals ATI organizational goals include the following:
1) to prov ide clinical art therapy serv ices to div erse populations at no
or low cost;
2) to prov ide training to the general public about the benefits of arts-
based therapy;
3) to superv ise students and new clinicians entering the field;
4) to conduct ethical and culturally-congruent research practices;
5) to adv ocate for the arts, mental health, and art therapy within North
Carolina and beyond;
6) to prov ide opportunities for div erse community members to
display and v iew artwork at free, community-wide art shows; and
7) to build bridges between div erse communities through the healing
power of the arts.
Financial support towards operational expenses such as rent will
allow the Art Therapy Institute to allocate more money to the
programs serv ing the community and thereby helping to reach ATI's
goals.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 15BA7CC0-0FAE-4533-B157-F8F68CE2CBE6
How will you
evaluate whether or
not your goals have
been met?
At the end of each academic school year, ATI's current clients
complete ev aluations which reflect on their experiences with ATI.
They are asked to ev aluate how ATI performs as an prov ider of art
therapy as well as how they feel their progress in therapy has been
adv anced ov er the course of the year. W hile researching the
effectiv eness of ATI and art therapy, the primary goal is to
incorporate participatory research (PR) practices. ATI has chosen
this model of research in order to ev aluate and empower participants
to engage in research that highlights their v oices and improv es their
experiences in the programs. The PR model acknowledges
participants as experts in their own needs and renegotiates the
traditional power differential between ‘researcher’ and the
‘researched.’
For ATI's school-based work, which is funded by gov ernment grants,
other types of ev aluations are used to meet the requirements of the
granting agencies. The main ev aluation ATI is currently using is the
Strengths and Difficulties Questionaire. (SDQ). This research tool is
completed at the beginning of the year and then again at the end of
the year by a teacher who best knows the student. The SDQ
measures qualities such as pro-social behav iors, behav ioral issues,
peer relationships and emotional responses. The goal is for students
to show more positiv e behav iors and relationships after hav ing been
in art therapy.
ATI also conducts annual rev iews with all staff members who are
directed to complete self ev aluations which help acknowledge
improv ements they can make as well as improv ements ATI as an
organization can make. ATI affords staff members the opportunity to
reflect on their strengths and celebrate their accomplishments.
Following workshops held by ATI, participants are asked to complete
ev aluations that rate the workshop and prov ide feedback on the
series as a whole and how it could be improv ed.
New this year was an ev aluation that was sent to people who
attended our signature fundraising ev ent, "I Heart Art." The goal in
sending this ev aluation was to learn how the ev ent could be
improv ed in the future.
All of these ev aluations help to inform ATI about the effectiv eness of
the organization and how well the organizational goals are being met.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 15BA7CC0-0FAE-4533-B157-F8F68CE2CBE6
How do you promote
and publicize the
work of your
organization?
The Art Therapy Institute (ATI) uses a v ariety of marketing tools to
promote its programs and ev ents. ATI’s website, www.ncati.org,
describes current programs, lists upcoming workshops, shares
information about the staff, promotes current fundraising activ ities
and other relev ant communications. In addition, all social media
platforms can be reached through the website. ATI has a strong
presence on Facebook
(https://www.facebook.com/ArtTherapyInstituteNC/) and Instagram
(https://www.instagram.com/atiofnc/).
Other platforms, such as LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube are used to a
lesser extent. On Facebook and Instagram, ATI promotes upcoming
ev ents and workshops; shares relev ant and timely information about
the fields of art therapy and expressiv e arts therapy; and adv ances
the general world of mental health through carefully curated articles
and news items. In addition, ATI shares the successes of its
programs by posting client artwork. (All postings are HIPAA
compliant and clients hav e giv en permission for their art to be
shared.)
Each month, ATI publishes an electronic newsletter to our email list
of approximately 1,700 people. These newsletters inform supporters
about the work ATI is doing and promote upcoming ev ents and
workshops.
Each year, ATI sends out a printed impact report to its donors. The
impact report serv es as an opportunity to celebrate the prev ious
year’s successes and promote future plans for the organization.
Donors get to see how their financial support is helping ATI and
hopefully are inspired to giv e again.
W hen ATI has special ev ents such as its signature fundraiser, "I
Heart Art," other types of marketing strategies are employed.
Postcards are mailed to hundreds of supporters, posters are placed
around Chapel Hill and Carrboro and PSAs are played on 97.9 The
Hill. ATI also has “swag” which is brought to these ev ents to sell
including beer pints, t-shirts and stickers, all with the ATI logo.
Monthly art shows and workshops, adv ertised v ia v arious news
outlets and online community calendars, offer ongoing exposure to
ATI’s work. ATI also hosts smaller, community-based fundraisers at
local breweries and restaurants. These fundraisers not only help
promote ATI and its programs but also help to support the
businesses where they are held.
