Tennessee Voices for Children

Mission Statement

TN Voices seeks to be a collaborative leader guiding mental health transformation.

We teach families to advocate for themselves, we educate them on the resources available to them, and then we teach them to help other parents/caregivers that they meet along their journey. Our qualified staff go on-site to schools, churches and other community centers to administer mental health prevention, screening, and supportive services. We identify domestic, child and sexual abuse, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, etc.

We map out an ongoing plan that is inclusive of all the systems touching the family’s life.

TN Voices has been serving children, families, and transition age youth, as well as adults and caregivers for over 30 years. As we grow we recognize the importance of expanding our brand to be inclusive of the adults we already serve as well as those in the future who need our advocacy services.

Tennessee Medical Foundation

Mission Statement

To protect patients through identification, intervention, rehabilitation, and the provision of advocacy/support for physicians and other health professionals impaired by addictive disease, mental or emotional illness. In response to requests from hospitals, physician groups and family members, the TMF has reshaped the program to assist health professionals, their families, and healthcare entities and organizations with a wider range of problems. They include stress, burnout, work conflict, and behavioral health problems. The TMF also provides education statewide on impairment and wellness issues; it also assists medical schools in Tennessee with programs targeted at medical students and residents. These programs are primarily educational, but they also aid medical school faculty in identifying students and residents afflicted with the disease of chemical dependency.

Tennessee Lions Charities Inc

Mission Statement

Tennessee Lions Charities’ mission is to improve the lives of Tennessee’s children through increased access to vision care. Through our KidSight Outreach vision screening program, we aim to ensure that children do not begin school with the disadvantage of an undiagnosed vision problem. KidSight Outreach provides early detection, professional referrals, and assured follow-up with the parents to ensure the child receives a professional eye examination. For over 25 years, our staff and trained volunteers have worked within local communities to bring KidSight Outreach to preschool-age children and address potentially unrecognized vision problems that could impede their educational, physical, and social development.
