At a gala event in Washington DC on October 14, 2010, attended by Heads of State, royalty, ambassadors and other dignitaries, the Music Therapy Community Clinic (MTCC) was honoured with a prestigious award from the Mentor International Foundation. Mentor is a non-governmental organisation that works globally to prevent drug misuse in young people. Their primary focus is the health and well-being of children with the aim of allowing them to develop to their full potential. The awards were presented in the presence of Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden and the MTCC received the Innovation Award which “recognises organisations whose work indicates significant promise for achieving effective outcomes in preventing drug abuse” for their Heideveld Trauma Project (Music for Life).
