Thank you CrossPoint Church volunteers for your BIG heart for others during the Serving Saturday event at the Wilson County Schools Family Resource Event! ❤️

Neurons are nerve cells serving as information messengers in the brain and can connect together to form neural highways that get needed information out to the body. Most neurons are created by birth and are an important part of child development. #resilienttn

Different areas of the brain are responsible for different abilities, like movement, language and emotion, and develop at different rates. Brain development builds on itself, as connections eventually link with each other in more complex ways. #tccy #resilienttn #braindevelopment

@Taylor_Rayfield @WilsonResource @LSSDFRC @HeyLesleyHarris It was a great day!

Ended the week with Mid Cumberland FRC Directors! Incredible conversations & collaboration geared toward strengthening systems of support. #UnlockingPotential

In Tennessee, young adults who age out of the foster care system are eligible for Extension of Foster Care services until they turn 21. Learn more at tn.gov/tccy/stateofth…

Many children in Tennessee are eligible for health insurance yet remain uninsured. Ensuring those children eligible for coverage receive it and are able to access health care would improve Tennessee’s individual, communal, and statewide child health outcomes. #TennCare #CoverKids

Toxic stress response occurs when a child experiences strong, frequent physical or emotional abuse, caregiver substance abuse or mental illness, exposure to violence, and/or the accumulated burdens of family economic hardship. #ResilientTN #positivechildhoodexperiences
