In October and November of 2015, the MDSTF sent out 5 weekly emails reaching out to Maryland music therapists to participate in 15 Minutes of Advocacy. Each week, Maryland music therapists were asked to complete a task that would culminate in a letter drafted to 3 legislators with the purpose of educating legislators about music therapy in the state of Maryland and advocating for state recognition of music therapy. In December, a repeat 15 Minutes of Advocacy was sent to encourage those that may not have been able to complete all 5 steps in October and November.
You can view the details of each week in the following letters:
15 Minutes of Advocacy- Week 1
15 Minutes of Advocacy- Week 2
15 Minutes of Advocacy- Week 3
