Treatment Fund Launched in Memory of Neil Lasher

A GOOD CAUSE –

March 16, 2021 – The Fund, initiated by his life partner Jill Jordon, and administered by Caron, will provide financial assistance for access to addiction and recovery treatment, with an emphasis on those involved in the music business. In addition, music programs will be established at Caron’s residential sites in Florida and Pennsylvania, including the creation of music studios where those in recovery can create, perform and enjoy music during treatment.

A veteran record label and music publishing executive, Lasher was a certified alcoholism and substance-abuse counselor and worked closely with both Caron and MusiCares, the Recording Academy’s charitable wing, which has provided millions in recovery assistance to music people over the years. Caron and MusiCares will hold a joint webinar on healing and recovery on April 6th at 8 p.m. ET: Addiction and Creativity in the time of COVID-19.
