TNSTEP

TNSTEP supports TN families by providing free information, advocacy training, and support services to families of children eligible to receive special education TNSTEP is a 501c3 non-profit organization that supports TN families and youth by providing free information, advocacy training, and support services to parents of children eligible to receive special education services. TNSTEP’s mission is to serve families of children and youth, young adults, and those who are involved in their lives. We provide accurate, timely, and relevant information and training related to special education rights, equal access to quality education, and connections to community resources. We believe that parents and caregivers are their children’s best advocates and that youth disabilities should be self-advocates. We know that families and youth who are informed, empowered, and engaged can effectively collaborate as part of a team for services and support that will lead to improved outcomes and success in life.
