State of The Child

The Station: Meta Collaborative Room
February 17, 2025

This is a Meta grant sponsored event hosted by Sumner County CASA.

The event will spotlight the current foster care landscape in Sumner County. The event will provide attendees with insight into the number of children in care, pressing needs within our school systems, the shortage of local foster placements, and proactive measures underway to support these children. We are fortunate to have a distinguished panel, including Judge David Howard, Cathy Graff, Anthony Poteet, Tiffany Kelley, and a DCS representative (invited), who will share their perspectives and expertise. Hannah Wise, Mrs. America 2024 will share her story as our Mission Moment.
