MMAD x Schools

Music is powerful. It can break down barriers, deliver important messages & unite people from all walks. 

MMAD programs use the power of music & storytelling to engage, inspire & empower young people in conversations about positive choices so they can live their potential. 

Our experienced youth workers, trained creative mentors & well-known musicians work to bring your school culture and values to life & encourage students to reflect on their own life choices through interactive school performances & workshops.

MMAD’s innovative programs reinforce teachings that may not be easily absorbed through traditional methods of communication.

Our creative mentoring and peer-to-peer voice are distinctly unique to MMAD with programs developed over a 20 year period and endorsed by leading youth psychologists.

Our storytelling is strength-based, positively framed & centres around lived experiences of young people overcoming challenges and making positive life choices so they can find their place in the world.

These safe stories are carefully developed to focus on themes of help seeking, hope, resilience and the positive outcomes of reaching out for support.

Every young person deserves someone who believes in them & the opportunity to live their potential. 

  • MMAD's ability to hold space for the participants at their visit was remarkable. They were able to bring positive energy and hope for the group, while also bringing in some amazing skills that they could share.
