Through more than 4,500 chartered chapters, TriM has helped thousands of young people provide years of service through music in schools throughout the world.
Tri-M shares and supports the objectives of every dedicated music educator to increase student and school involvement with music and to make a stronger and more unified school music program. Tri-M is a program of MENC: The National Association for Music Education, the largest non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of music education.
