Serena Wilson (Department of Children's Services) opened the session describing the ACES innovation grant structure, reminding grantees to collect both quantitative and qualitative data and announcing the first learning community in September; she framed the meeting as networking and dissemination for funded projects.
Department of Children’s Services hosted a Resilient Tennessee grantee showcase where multiple nonprofit and school-based projects described trauma-informed, resilience-building programs funded through an ACES innovation grant. Presentations highlighted SEL clubs in Memphis Shelby County Schools, maternal mental-health outreach in East Tennessee, the HOPE/HOPE Collective model, statewide clinician training and local partnerships; no formal votes or motions were recorded.
