The National Association for Music Education, formerly called Music Educators National Conference (MENC), is an organization based out of Reston, Virginia which is focused on the advancement of music education, both as a profession and the assurance of music education as part of the core curriculum across the United States. They are also the creators of The National Anthem Project.
