Youth Action Network

The Coalition for Music Education has launched its Youth Action Network -  a national movement  of young people who understand the importance of access to quality music education programs for all students. Through sharing ideas, resources, and successes and by working together with our schools and communities, youth can have a greater impact with a louder voice – a voice that cannot be ignored. We’re stronger together – so COUNT YOURSELF IN!

Take part in our YOUTH ACTION SURVEY and help change the face of music education in your community.
