Today, August 26th, Every Child TN officially launches!

Every Child TN is a comprehensive and coordinated entry point for everyday Tennesseans to support – in any way they can – the children, youth, and families impacted by foster care. The statewide effort is powered by the TN Department of Children’s Services, the Governor’s Faith-Based and Community Initiative, 30 network partners, and hundreds of community and faith organizations.

Everyone can make a difference for children, youth, and families.

Explore the following opportunities to get involved on our website!
