About this Event

The convening focuses on community-based organizations that provide vocational training, education, or support services in East Tennessee.

Since United Way of Greater Nashville acts as the primary intermediary for the state, the goal is to recruit organizations that have the capacity to serve SNAP participants but may not yet be part of the SNAP E&T network.

Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Free parking on site.
