decIn December we sent out a holiday well wishes to our clients, fans, family and friends, and an announcement about our Sensory Friendly Recital that happened on Dec. 6th (and was a huge success!)

We also talked about our opportunity to be a part of an exciting new autism research study on motor differences, through Colorado State University.

janIn the January newsletter we just sent out last week, we had lots more exciting news about two community-based programs we are now launching. One is with Arc of Central Chesapeake and taking place in Annapolis at Maryland Hall.  The other is with Hussman Institute for Autism and taking place near Baltimore and UMBC campus.

As you can see, we’re pretty thrilled and so honored to serve families in our community through music therapy.

Now that I (CJ) am caught up on this blog, it’s time for our first annual #MTadvocacy post. Stay tuned!
