My Nonprofit Reviews

Our son, Matthew, now 19, has been a client of NMTSA for about a decade. He has a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder and is very limited in his verbal communication and social skills. One huge motivator for Matthew is music. He loves it! It's helped us open the door to more meaningful communication and interactions. Matthew has learned how to project his voice, which started as a whisper; slow down and better pace his speech; and better comprehend language and lessons when added to song. In addition, NMTSA was helpful when we experimented with an augmentative communication device and worked on articulation issues. We're most grateful to Suzanne Oliver, Jennifer Hempel and her team at NMTSA for their clinical expertise, professionalism, compassion and belief in our kids of all ages. Denise, Matthew's Mom
