Absolutely. Yes, exactly, Monsieur Nantel.
As I said, we've done six years of research looking into the impact of these forms of artmaking and what it does for people. We see, for example, an organization called “Cirque Hors Piste” in Montreal, a program that works with street-involved youth. What we see from our research is that a very high percentage of them report back to us on returning to school or learning job skills or just on being more socially included and returning to or going to a state of better well-being.
We see a group of breast cancer patients in a hospital in Ontario, unhappy with their treatment, creating a play with an art-for-social-change playwright. They performed it for the whole hospital and, as a result of that, policy was changed for the better.
