This legislation creates a music therapy license in Georgia through the Secretary of State. Many thanks to the members of the Georgia Task Force (Rachel Coon-Arnott, Jamie George, Kirby Smith, Chesley Mercado, Pat Coates, and Ellen Ritchey) and to all the music therapists in Georgia for their work, dedication, and advocacy for this legislation." Rachel Coon-Arnott was honored with the Advocacy Award by the Southeastern Region of AMTA (SER-AMTA) for the effort, passion, and collaborative spirit she brought to this endeavor.
