In Home Care

  • In a study of home-visit programs, six out of seven early childhood programs that conducted four or more visits per month, on average, and lasted over a year had a positive effect on at least one outcome[1]
  • As part of Tennessee Children’s Home’s commitment to the children and families we serve, TCH provides in-home services to children who have completed our residential care program. Providing emotional support for children returning home and their families is part our commitment to ensure successful results.

    Our involvement in-home begins within one week of a child entering our residential program and can last from four to nine months post-residence. The in-home program consists of at least two in-person meetings per week, and on-call services as needed.
