Rehab Arts Studio

The social network of Rehab Arts Studio in Phoenix, AZ

Welcome to the RAS network!

Hello and Welcome!

This is the new social network of Rehab Arts Studio which is a project still in early formation stages. This is a project that I was inspired to create while an inpatient at The Sundance Center in Scottsdale, AZ and under the tutelage of Dr. Paula Artac, D.Min, ATR-BC, CEAT in her expressive art therapy classes at Sundance. She is my muse and I can not express my gratitude, love and appreciation to her in mere words so I dedicate this entire project to her. She ignited a spark within my being and this project is the flame.

I also dedicate this project to Jenna Curtis who's heart will forever be the symbol of Rehab Arts Studio.

We will be incorporating as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the goal of establishing an expressive art therapy program for recovering drug addicts, opening an arts center in downtown Phoenix, AZ to showcase all forms of creative expression by addicts and donating proceeds to addiction related charities and foundations.

Namaste,

Steve Barr

Ramifications of Homeschooling

My name is Doris Anne Beaulieu. I have a website-Life’s Ultimate Test dot com-on which you can learn more about my mission to change the face of home schooling.
I attended a parochial school as a child in the 1950's. In this Catholic school I was sheltered from the realities of the world around me-from swearing, from public displays of affection, from slang. These are often some of the same things that modern home schooling parents aim to protect their children from. A superior court judge said”… Continue

How do you feel?

I guess people are in our lives, but then they are not. We live while we can, and we love while we can.
Normal is not a word that applies to my life now a days. As I become more and more trustworthy, I also become more particular in who I trust. Trust...as it slips away with some, the lose becomes almost unbareable. Trust...as it builds with others, the gain is healing and inviting. When trust is lost, we question the ability to hang on and not crumble. It is not in me to give up on HOPE but hur… Continue
