This year we are a partner with the U.S. Census Bureau to highlight the need for everyone to be counted. When minority groups, low income, homeless and other populations under-report, Tennessee loses MILLIONS of dollars in federal funding for health and social services. Learn how YOU can impact our fair share of funding by attending.

TCSW welcomes groups from across the state as new members and partners in this important work.
