Statement from AMTAS President:
My name is Nazarene Campodonico; I am the incoming President for the 2026 AMTAS term. I am a recent graduate of Nazareth University and am completing my internship at the Hochstein School in Rochester, NY. I am ecstatic to be serving in this role! AMTAS has been at the forefront of student advocacy, networking, and community for over five decades. With our aim to empower students, we are working constantly to ensure the future of music therapy. I am deeply grateful to be a part of this wonderful organization! Students within AMTAS continue to demonstrate the power of community and connection within the field of music therapy.
As the current President of the American Music Therapy Association for Students (AMTAS), my goal is to continue building community and providing resources for students nationwide. From scholarships to educational opportunities, I hope to extend the reach of our support for future music therapists through fundraising, advocacy, and education. After all, we are the future of this great profession! On behalf of the executive board, I want to express gratitude for the support of students and professionals nationwide. I firmly believe in the phrase, “it takes a village.” AMTAS would not be where it is right not without the dedication of countless students and professionals across the country. It truly does “take a village,” to grow an organization, and I am immensely grateful for the community that music therapy provides. As an executive board, we aim to make students feel valued, recognized, and supported throughout their education. We will continue to foster an environment that is full of compassion and community. As we enter the 2026 term, I look forward to working with students and professionals alike. I am thrilled to continue the hard work of previous executive boards and hope to continue building the meaningful community that is AMTAS! In service, Nazarene Campodonico (they/them) AMTAS President, 2026 [email protected] |
