Me2/ (“me, too”) is the world’s only classical music organization created for individuals with mental illnesses and the people who support them. Me2/ serves as a model organization where people with and without mental illnesses work together in an environment where acceptance is an expectation, patience is encouraged, and supporting each other is a priority. Our flagship ensemble, Me2/Orchestra–Burlington, is a non-auditioned orchestra that rehearses weekly and performs 3-4 times annually in traditional concert venues, inside correctional and rehabilitation facilities, and for mental health events. Our newest ensemble, Me2/Orchestra–Boston, launched in September 2014. Both of these orchestras give exhilarating performances that encourage dialogue about mental health issues and erase the stigma surrounding mental illnesses.
