MMM proudly presents Naza Na Pouvoir (I Have the Power) by Cohorte Femmes Fortes from Maison Dorcas in Bukavu, South Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo.

*LISTEN NOW at the link in our bio.*

This collection of six tracks is filled with hope and inspiration.

“My only hope is to find peace in my heart. The day when I am employed, my life will change and my child will go to school, and I’ll fight for the future of my son born of rape,” explained one of the artists.

Where do they find inspiration? “I am myself my only source of inspiration, as I work every day, I focus on my future, and that’s what inspires me.”

"A Healing in Harmony artist once told me that she could never imagine that the negative thoughts and injury she suffered following rape could affect her health. She went on to say that she now understands that negative thinking is a disease. Coming from the artist, it was really rewarding."

In his latest blog post, MMM's Lead Therapist Justin Cikuru reflects on perceptions of mental health in the DRC and the impact of our Healing in Harmony music therapy program.
