MARK YOUR CALENDAR:

This year we made great headway in state budget service funding restorations - but NEXT year will be the real test.  VULNERABLE CHILDREN AND ADULTS ARE DEPENDING UPON YOUR VOICE to speak for them.  We look forward to working with you in your community to better understand funding and educate your decision-makers about the importance of services.

Below is a list of articles that illustrate the enormity of what was at stake - and most were restored with one-time funding. 

Here is a link to the Opinion Editorial in the Tennessean in June, 2009 stating our position. Our leadership with the help of many partners was very effective in providing budget analysis and issue education during budget revision.
