2024 Snapshot Report

A SPECIAL NOTE TO OUR SUPPORTERS

As I reflect on the past year, I am filled with gratitude for the unwavering commitment of our team, partners, and community members who have stood by Nurture the Next in our mission to create brighter, safer futures for children and families across Tennessee. This has been a transformative year—one marked not only by challenges but also by significant strides forward. 

We've seen firsthand the power of coming together with shared purpose and a unified voice. Our work has expanded into new areas, our programs have reached more families than ever before, and our advocacy efforts have resonated with policymakers. Every success story, every life touched, is a testament to the impact we can make when we work together. 

This year is especially meaningful as we celebrate 40 years of serving our community. 

Our organization’s growth and resilience are rooted in a deep sense of responsibility to the communities we serve. This year, we have strengthened our evidence-based programming, built new partnerships, and continued to innovate in our approach to supporting families. Our commitment to continuous improvement is driven by a steadfast priority: putting families first. We remain focused on listening to their needs and expanding our efforts to ensure every family receives the support and care they deserve. 

But none of this would be possible without the dedication of our staff, volunteers, and supporters. You have all played a crucial role in ensuring that every child has the opportunity to grow up in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. As we look ahead, we remain committed to our mission and to the belief that together, we can create a future where every child has the chance to thrive. 

Thank you for being a part of our journey. We’re excited about the opportunities and new initiatives on the horizon and look forward to another year of innovation, growth, and meaningful impact for the families we serve.
