SOUTH DADE MUSIC ALLIANCE 

The South Dade Music Alliance (SDMA) Program is a multi-year collective impact initiative. Our goal is to unite music programming in South Dade by identifying organizations, amplifying their work and capacities, work towards collective impact, and tell the community's story. The SDMA program students will participate in different after-school and in-school music programs across 16 elementary, middle, and high schools in South Dade, Florida, where access to music education programs has been historically limited. The SDMA’s goal is that through free access to music programming, all students will have the opportunity to gain academic, attendance, and socio-emotional learning benefits that will last a lifetime. For more information, click here.

The South Dade Music Alliance is focusing on organizations that provide both music education and social and emotional learning in their classrooms.

  • Music education organizations who provide high-performing, innovative programming that support school needs in South Dade working to ensure that all young people have equitable access to music education opportunities. We aim to invest in the most effective, scalable, multidisciplinary music education programs, in school and out of school. In addition, organizations must also develop students’ Social and Emotional Learning Capacities (SEL) through meaningful student and teacher engagement, leadership development, communication, self-efficacy, confidence, and encourage academic achievement.

  • A dedication to advancing music access by providing music education and other music programming to youth that are traditionally underserved. 
  • Vision and realistic ability for the organization to scale to meet the needs of the school.
  • Demonstrated ability to reach targeted audiences
  • Organizational leadership and capacity to implement the proposed program or initiative
  • Evidence of strong networks and partnerships with others in the field
  • A sound approach for measuring progress
