CHALLENGE: Many children and teens are in extended hospital stays for multiple reasons. Through art therapy,  patients increase self-expression, develop skills that support resilience and discover additional ways to cope with pain, isolation or anxiety that support healing. A kit was needed for each patient to hold their art and papers in.

SOLUTION: Working with an art therapist at Yale New Haven Children's Hospital, a folder and CD were developed to hold their art and progress papers in. We felt it was important these materials feel young, edgy, and to reflect the actual digital and traditional art represented by real patients, which gives it credibility.
