| Description: |
The Tennessee Respite Network is a program of Tennessee Voices for Children. We maintain a statewide Information and Referral Service for families who have children ages 0-18 with any type of serious disability. We are funded by the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities. Families can access TRN by calling 615-269-7855 or 1-888-269-7855 (toll free). Parents who call are given referrals to local agencies and individuals for respite services. TRN conducts both extensive classroom and online training for individuals to become providers. In some cases, families with a member diagnosed with a serious emotional disturbance can also receive financial assistance for respite through TRN's Planned Respite for Families Program funded by Magellan Behavioral Health, Inc. |
