The VU MT program received this award at this year in recognition of our five years of service to the music therapy profession. This was awarded just days after the Provost decided our program wasn't worth future investment. Please write letters of support for our program and send them to [email protected].

Thanks for a wonderful time at the 2024 GLR Music Therapy Conference last weekend!

VU music therapy student, Virginia Leahy, presented on music therapy and mental health, Alondra G. Quiroz and Adrian Williams attended their first ever GLR Music Therapy Conference, and Julia Pastore, who graduated from VU in December, attended her first conference as an MT-BC and new professional.

Congratulations to all of these VU music therapy students!

Our program needs your help!!
