Regional Councils
The Tennessee Commission on Children and Youth staffs and coordinates nine regional councils that provide organizational structure for statewide networking on behalf of children and families. The councils address the needs of children and families at the regional level and offer local-level feedback to the Commission. Children's services professionals and other citizens interested in improving the lives of Tennessee's children are members of the councils.
TCCY coordinators have offices in each region and provide staff support to the councils. Each council has its own leadership structure and membership fee levels. For more information, contact the coordinator in your region.
TCCY councils work to make available information about services to children and events of interest to advocates and other interested Tennesseans.
