Washington State music therapists need your help!
We had a big win when music therapy licensure became law in our state, but unfortunately the costs are too high and stopping many music therapists from becoming licensed. The task force has put together an email that we kindly ask you to send to Governor Ferguson’s office, requesting that the previous previously vetoed music therapy licensing funding be restored.
A letter template, including a link on where to submit the email, can be found in the link in our bio.
Thanks for all you do!
