What is a local chapter?
Each local chapter is an organization formed within an MTNA-affiliated state association by a group of active MTNA members interested in advancing music knowledge and education. Typically formed by teachers in a common geographic area, local chapters provide members with a direct connection to state and national representatives capable of assisting with local matters and a variety of MTNA programs and services designed to meet the needs of music teachers and their students. Local chapters are an important way MTNA can provide information and support for music teachers across the country.
​
