Imagine a Tennessee where strong families are the norm, and child abuse and neglect become relics of the past. This is the vision driving Nurture the Next, a non-profit championing the well-being of children and their families. Since its inception, thousands of families across the state have partnered with Nurture the Next to build nurturing homes.
Their secret weapon? Empowering parents. Nurture the Next understands that confident, knowledgeable parents are the foundation of healthy childhoods. Through a unique two-generational approach, they equip parents with the tools they need to thrive. Personalized home visits offer tailored guidance, while mentorship programs foster a supportive community where parents can share experiences and learn from each other. Educational workshops arm them with evidence-based strategies for positive parenting and child development.
Nurture the Next's impact extends beyond individual households. They work hand-in- hand with policymakers and stakeholders to create a comprehensive system of care across Tennessee. All their services – from home visits to workshops – are free and confidential, ensuring every family has access to the support they need. Investing in parents and children is investing in Tennessee's future.
