The TN Voices Child Care Consultation program offers services that are designed to assist educators and families to understand, appropriately respond to, and prevent challenging behaviors, promote social-emotional development and positive behaviors in children, strengthen home-school partnerships, and reduce suspensions and expulsions from early education and care settings. The goal is to support the adults in a child’s life to promote the necessary social emotional skills for children to develop a “foundation for success” in the early years and beyond. Our Early Childhood Program offers support for teachers, administrators, parents, and caregivers of children birth-8 years old. We work with child serving agencies across the state, including Head Starts, voluntary Pre-K, faith-based Pre-Ks, and elementary schools. These services are available at no-cost.
*Expanded services are available in Shelby, Davidson, Stewart, Montgomery, Robertson, Sumner, Trousdale, Wilson, Cheatham, Dickson, Houston, Humphreys, Hickman, Perry, Williamson, Rutherford, Cannon, Coffee, Bedford, Marshall, Maury, Lewis, Wayne, Lawrence, Giles, Lincoln, Moore, and Franklin counties through the Tennessee Resiliency Project.
