NMTSA is holding a BBQ lunch and fund-raiser on Arizona Gives Day to provide therapy scholarships for children with autism, cerebral palsy, Down Syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
Partner with us to hand out flyers and direct individuals to our BBQ food truck. You can also be working at the donation booth to help individuals use iPads to make donations. This will also involve helping set up and take down the booth. This one time event is a great way to change the life of a child while enjoying amazing BBQ food and the great weather that Phoenix has to offer.

Description
NMTSA provides Neurologic Music Therapy services as well as continuing education and training opportunities in the areas of Assuming Competence, Positive Behavioral supports, and Competency based communication strategies. We also have the Assuming Competence Today (ACT) School that provides general education curriculum paired with sensory, communication, and behavioral supports. Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) is an advanced form of music therapy that uses research based techniques to treat the brain using music and rhythm. NMT uses these techniques to achieve non-musical goals such as speech, physical movement, cognition and other conditions of the nervous system. Our therapists use NMT interventions to treat a variety of neurologic difficulties including, but not limited to, Parkinson's, stroke, Traumatic Brain Injury, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, and Autism. We are also dedicated to collaboration and community outreach and training across a variety of subjects pertaining to individuals with disabilities. We count on our volunteers to partner with us in serving the greater Phoenix and Arizona community.
