Established in 1953
The Mid-Atlantic Region of the American Music Therapy Association (MARAMTA) is comprised of music therapists and students from 7 states, including New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, as well as Washington DC. Founded on March 21, 1953, the MARAMTA has its roots in the former National Association for Music Therapy (NAMT). The Mid-Atlantic Region was founded as the first region of the NAMT (Wheeler and Golden, 1987) with the goal of advancing the awareness of music therapy through the development of a strong professional network. Throughout our vibrant history, this goal remains at the heart of our organization. Members of the MAR have played key leadership roles in regional, national and international capacities. Today we are proud to be comprised of a dynamic group of distinguished students and professional music therapists alike, including 18 university programs and 33 national roster internship sites.
Our Goal
The mission of the Mid-Atlantic Region of the American Music Therapy Association is to advance public awareness of the benefits of music therapy, to increase access to quality music therapy services, and to provide support to its members within the Mid-Atlantic Region.
