20th Annual Children's Advocacy Days

Brochure with Registration Information

Updated Agenda

Join TCCY and members of its nine regional councils March 11-12, 2008, for the 20th Annual Children's Advocacy Days.

Tennessee Children's Advocacy Days 2008 will provide a forum for those working with, and on behalf of, children and families across the state to gain new information that will facilitate their efforts to improve the health and well being of children and families in their communities. The conference, through key speakers and networking, is intended to promote greater knowledge and understanding of current issues confronting children and their families in Tennessee, provide an opportunity for participants to become more effective advocates for children, provide an opportunity for participants to interact with Tennessee legislators on critical children's issues, and provide an opportunity to hear perspectives on children's issues and financing children's services.
