Voices Together uses the VOICSS® Music Therapy model to give students with neurodiversities the tools they need to transform their own lives. Founded by CEO, Yasmine White, VOICSS® Music Therapy is a research-based and curriculum-informed model that addresses three core challenges of people who are neurodivergent or have related disabilities: (1) communication, (2) social/emotional learning, and (3) self-efficacy. The mission of Voices Together is to empower individuals to find their voice and create their own path in life through specialized music therapy. 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 VOICSS® Music Therapy that these individuals need and often can’t afford. A nine-member board of directors represents and advocates for our organization in the larger community. It serves as fiduciary of our organization and ensures that we advance our mission effectively. An 20-member Advisory Council provides valuable insights, support and expertise that inform the growth and development of our programs. Voices Together is a 501(c)3 statewide organization serving individuals across North Carolina. Board-certified and trained in our method, VOICSS® Music Therapists facilitate our program for children, teens, and adults with a range of needs, including individuals diagnosed with Autism, sensory processing disorder, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other types of neurodiversity. In 2018, Voices Together was awarded a contract with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services through the North Carolina Division of Vocational Rehabilitation to provide Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) to children ages 14-21 to help them transition from school to work in the community.
