Join Tennessee Commission on Children & Youth for a day of education and networking at the Resilient Tennessee Collaborative Summit Watch Party in Chattanooga!
We are excited to offer an opportunity for a virtual Watch Party in Chattanooga! The United Way of Greater Chattanooga has graciously offered space for a limited number of attendees to join the Summit virtually and our partner with Urban Child Institute, Katy Spurlock, will be hosting the Chattanooga event. Thanks to all!
The Summit will inspire community connectedness, strengthen understanding of community engagement, resilience and positive childhood experiences, and further cross-sector collaboration with local, regional and statewide partners to address challenges and improve outcomes for children, youth and families across Tennessee.
At present, we are unable to provide meals, please bring your own as needed.
During the day, there will be two opportunities for discussion among attendees. At each watch party, all attendees will be in one networking/discussion group. The in-person attendees in Nashville will be divided into affinity groups. For your information, those descriptions are below.
