The Rocksmiths is a non profit organization, with a mission is to provide alternative treatment through exciting and engaging art therapy using the passion and discipline of Hip-hop. Dedicated to the well being of society as a whole, we aim to give tools to combat anxiety and depression through healthy expression.
Many of our members have battled feelings of anxiety and depression, which we felt lost or abandoned. Though it is such a common disorder, depression is one of the most treatable mental disorders. With correct treatment, 90 percent of those diagnosed with depression gain relief from their symptoms. There are many different ways to treat depression, such as Medication, Psychotherapy, and Electroconvulsive Therapy, to name a few. However, by utilizing the exciting attraction of the elements of hip-hop: graffiti, breaking, rapping, and deejaying, the organization has reached those in need of alternative solutions through engaging and exciting marketing and community events.
