As 2011 comes to a close, we would like to thank all of you for your support and commitment to improving children’s health and academic outcomes in Nashville. Over the past year, Alignment Nashville committees have:
  • garnered 254 responses to 18 Invitations to Participate (ITP)
  • engaged 244 organizations through the ITP process
  • included approximately 675 people on committees and task forces
