What next moves will help the intervention’s relational changes be expressed as changed behavior?
Our arts-based interventions shift the ways people relate to one another. They change the subjective meanings participants make of others, themselves, & the relationships between them.
As vital as such shifts are, on their own they are not sufficient to result in behavior change. Expressing shifted subjective meaning as behavior requires external post-intervention structures — ranging from opportunities for participants to continue gathering to collaborative projects.
