El Sistema USA connects and supports a network of 150 music education programs nationwide, serving 30,000 students through professional development, research, student leadership programs, and grant funding. We believe every child—regardless of income, geography, or identity—deserves access to high-quality music education that builds community, opportunity, and personal growth. We're especially energized by Summer Now!, our new national granting and learning initiative helping member organizations strengthen and expand summer music programming.
