The Music Education Advocate Podcast

Music educators witness the needs of our students firsthand; yet often, we don’t feel fully equipped to advocate for our students effectively. Join music educator turned advocate, Jazzmone, and other music education advocates to hear their stories and reflections on how to make advocacy actionable for the music education advocate. We can’t promise that we have all the answers, but we can learn from each other and grow together. *Music provided by Skilsel. © 2023 The National Association for Music Education
