The Musicians Assistance Program (MAP) was a non-profiit organization which provided support and addiction recovery resources for music industry professionals. It was founded by saxophonist Buddy Arnold, a former heroin addict, and his wife, Carole Fields Arnold, in 1992.^[1] Originally created to aid sidemen -- the musicians-for-hire who perform with named artists -- MAP broadened its program to include all "music people" in 1994. In 2004, following the deaths of Arnold and Fields Arnold,^[2]^[3] MAP was acquired by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences' MusiCares Foundation. While it ceased to exist as an independent entity, the MusiCares MAP Fund was created to continue the mission of the Musician's Assistance Program.^[4]
