🚨 IMPORTANT

Tennessee leaders are raising serious concerns after Gov. Bill Lee rejected the Summer EBT program for the second year in a row, cutting off critical food assistance for nearly 700,000 food-insecure children across our state.

This is an $80 million federally funded program — at no cost to Tennessee taxpayers.

Nearly 1 in 5 Tennessee children face food insecurity.

Last year’s state replacement program reached only 2% of eligible children.
The deadline to act is February 15.

📞 Please call Gov. Lee’s office today at (615) 741-2001 and urge him to restore the Summer EBT program for Tennessee families.

Our children cannot afford delays.

There is a fierce urgency of now.

❤️ Clinic Recap: Love Your Heart Month ❤️
Today at our Weekly Free Medical Clinic (held every Monday), we began celebrating the month of Love by focusing on the importance of caring for your heart.

Participants received a heart health workshop highlighting simple but powerful ways to protect and strengthen your heart:

1️⃣ Exercise & Movement – Stay active daily, even small steps make a big difference.
2️⃣ Eat Healthy Foods – Choose fresh vegetables, lean proteins, and heart-friendly meals.
3️⃣ Practice Self-Care & Reduce Stress – Protect your peace and prioritize your well-being.

We also demonstrated healthy meal options, including fresh salads packed with vegetables and delicious baked chicken prepared with care. ❤️🥗

Heart health is more than a conversation — it’s a lifestyle. We are committed to educating and empowering our community through preventive health at every clinic.

💙 Join us every Monday for our Free Medical Clinic.

Moments like this remind us why we do the work. 💙

New Direction Health Care Solutions Executive Director Cynthia J. Finch took time to lift the heart of one of our Free Medical Clinic participants by celebrating her birthday at the Senior Residence House.

Ms. Cheryl was overjoyed—not just because of the celebration, but because she knows that New Direction is family. Moments of love, dignity, and connection matter just as much as care and services.

A message from Ms. Cheryl:
“Thank u again for the pj’s and the rest. It was so nice to see you. Love u, Cheryl.”

At New Direction, we believe healing happens when people feel seen, valued, and loved. 💕

Happy Birthday, Ms. Cheryl—we’re honored to celebrate you!
