Global Voices is an online, community-based media initiative, working to build understanding across communities.

Founded in 2007 by Yasmine White, MT-BC, Voices Together is a 501(c)3 statewide organization serving individuals across North Carolina. Board-certified and trained in our method, Voices Music Therapists facilitate our program for children, teens, and adults with a range of needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), mental health conditions, and complex medical needs. The efficacy of our model has been studied and affirmed through a 3-year research partnership with Duke University that resulted in published articles in academic journals. Voices Together uses the Voices Music Therapy (VMT) model to give individuals the tools they need to transform their own lives. Our program model offers individuals the support and tools to explore who they are, what they need, and how they want to communicate. We offer them the skills to self-manage emotions, problem-solve, and build confidence. These skills are transformative and critical to their success in school, work, and their communities. Voices Music Therapy (VMT) is a research-based, curriculum-informed music therapy model that helps individuals build critical life skills in new ways to gain independence, agency, and fulfillment in their lives. VMT is a non-directive model with an embedded Self-Efficacy Developmental Curriculum that addresses three core challenges of people who are neurodivergent or have related disabilities: (1) communication, (2) social/emotional learning, and (3) self-advocacy. Many of the individuals we serve are triple-marginalized; in addition to their diagnoses, many are people of color and classified as Low-to-Moderate Income. Since 2007, Voices Together has filled a critical gap, providing Voices Music Therapy (VMT) that these individuals need and often can’t afford.
