The Tennessee Justice Center has been around for nearly 30 years protecting access to healthcare for all Tennesseans. In the last 10 years, TJC expanded to add an anti-hunger team which is focused on protecting and strengthening the federal nutrition safety net. The team runs numerous monthly working groups- WIC Champions, SNAP Access, Summer EBT Partners, Healthy Meals Healthy Kids TN, TANF Stakeholders, and Quarterly College Hunger Call. The anti-hunger team’s current work includes Summer EBT advocacy, SNAP and WIC language access advocacy, TN General Assembly lobbying to adopt free school meals for all, advocacy to break down silos between state agencies and cross-promote nutrition programs, outreach to increase TN WIC participation, and more!
