My Voice Music is a nonprofit organization that engages marginalized youth in music and performance in order to promote self-esteem, social skills and emotional expression.

By partnering with local alternative schools and other non-profit agencies we provide free music programs in areas where needs are high but funding for services is low.

All of our services are provided for free, or at a "pay what you can afford" rate, to the youth we serve. Instruments, instruction and funding are provided through the generous support of our community, volunteers and partnerships.
